I have a similar problem. I have configured under Sytem->Preferences->Keyboard several keyboard layouts (Swedish, Swiss-French and US). I want the L-shift + R-shift combination to switch layout.

I also configured the keyboard to switch the position of the left ctrl key and the caps-lock key.

I always suspend the laptop when leaving the office, and when I resume it the layout will not switch anymore and it has forgotten the ctrl-key exchange.

I have found that if I then enter the System->Preferences->Keyboard menu, select the Layout tab, click Other Options, expand the Layout Switching tree, and *just click and un-click the first checkbox*, and then close everything, the layout switching works again.

Not a critical bug by any means, but a rather annoying one especially for us international users.
