`xkb_switch_layout next` doesn't switch XWayland layout.

[YellowOnion]

Please fill out the following:

• Sway Version:

  • sway version 1.9

• Configuration File:

  input * {
  xkb_layout "us"
  xkb_variant "dvorak"
  xkb_model pc104
  xkb_options compose:ralt
  accel_profile flat
  tap enabled
  tap_button_map lrm
  dwt disabled
  }

I have a custom layout I've been playing around with and applying like so:

$ swaymsg 'bindsym --locked $mod+BackSpace input * xkb_switch_layout next'
$ swaymsg 'input * xkb_layout "us,woob,us"'
$  swaymsg 'input * xkb_variant "dvorak,fhae-wide,basic"'

• Description:

If I hit $mod+BackSpace twice, my layout switches from dvorak to qwerty, which I can confirm via swaymsg -t get_inputs, but the setxkbmap still reports dvorak as the primary layout.

$  setxkbmap -print -verbose 10
Setting verbose level to 10

geometry:   pc(pc105)
xkb_keymap {
        xkb_keycodes  { include "evdev+aliases(qwerty)" };
        xkb_types     { include "complete"      };
        xkb_compat    { include "complete"      };
        xkb_symbols   { include "pc+us(dvorak)+inet(evdev)"     };
        xkb_geometry  { include "pc(pc105)"     };
};

As an aside the geometry is wrong (I use a ansi pc104 keyboard) and I'm unsure why it's displayed wrong, or if sway even bothers parsing it...as it provides no way to introspect this parameter.

Isn't this an xorg-xwayland bug? Sway uses libxkbcommon, and xorg-x* all depend on xorg-xwayland being a proper bridge, I think?

wlroots might not send the new keyboard layout to Xwayland if an X11 window isn't focused.
