Raspberry Pi 4 B Numlockx set off at the end of GUI boot #5600

Describe the bug

In Raspberry Pi 3 B, for getting a permanent numlock (keyboard light on) it is usualy sufficient to only install numlockx. The behavior of an identical RaspiOS installation on Raspberry Pi 4 B is quite different: With installed numlockx, numlock light is only temporarily on during the GUI boot, but is switching off imediately after the end of the GUI boot process. On the command line, 'numlockx status' shows 'Numlock is off'; with 'numlockx on' numlock light can now be permanentely activated and 'numlockx status' shows 'Numlock is on'.

Steps to reproduce the behaviour

And you're running under X11 in both cases (not Wayland)?
