Basically summed up in the title. Whenever I switch keyboard layouts (from ‘us’ to ‘il’ using caps lock), the change only lasts for as long as I stay within the current text box. If I’m not inside one, the layout will not change at all.
It always switches back to the default layout, in my case ‘us’.
Problem happens both when setting the shortcut from the “Keyboard” GUI in KDE and when using Xorg directly with “setxkbmap”.
Also tried setting the option on switching policy to “global” to no avail.
Not sure whether it’s a bug or just unwanted intended behavior, but in any case I’d love to know how to solve it or work around it.
