Bug Description

If I have numlock on, and then switch user, the numlock light goes off. When I go back to my original login, the light is still off, but numlock is actually on. If I then press numlock again, the light will come on, and numlock is still on.

Numlock should either stay on when switching user, or the light should come back on when switching back to indicate the numlock state correctly.

Sorry if the above is confusing, it's a bit difficult to describe.
