Bug Description

Steps to reproduce:
1. Launch Ubuntu MATE 20.04 LTS installer in OEM mode
2. Confirm using English locale
3. While setting OS for end user specify Russian language, confirm system configuration
4. Login to the configured system

Expected result:
* the keyboard layout switcher shows two layouts - *en* and *ru*, reacts on <Alt>+<Shift> hotkey

Actual result:
* the keyboard layout switcher shows two layouts - *en* and *ru*, but does not react on <Alt>+<Shift> hotkey

Note: the contents of keyboard configuration files is the following:

```
$ cat /etc/default/keyboard
# KEYBOARD CONFIGURATION FILE

# Consult the keyboard(5) manual page.

XKBMODEL="pc105"
XKBLAYOUT="us,ru"
XKBVARIANT=","
XKBOPTIONS="grp_led:scroll"

BACKSPACE="guess"

```
so keyboard layout switcher is not defined here.
