Description Vitaly Dolgov 2016-02-15 14:55:28 UTC 
When switching from Russian to Japanese (Kana Kanji), input is not working properly.

Steps to reproduce:

1. in Settings set English (US), Russian and Japanese (Kana Kanji) as your input sources
2. open text editor, e.g. Gedit
3. switch to English, then switch to Japanese, type (you will notice that kana conversion works well)
4. switch to Russian, then switch to Japanese, type (you will notice that you type cyrillic characters)

To fix Japanese input it necessary at first to switch to English and then to Japanese.

It is not limited to Japanese (Kana Kanji), but all IBus input methods with <layout>default</layout> in the 'ibus read-cache' output.  I have no idea how it could be solved.

Hi,
Just FYI, I have observed the same between 'russian' and 'Telugu' against ibus-kkc-1.5.22-3.fc23.x86_64

$ ibus engine
xkb:us::eng
$ jlkj
bash: jlkj: command not found...
$

$ ibus engine xkb:ru::rus
$ ibus engine
xkb:ru::rus
$ длодлождлодл
bash: длодлождлодл: command not found...
$

$ ibus engine m17n:te:inscript2
(process:20737): IBUS-WARNING **: main.vala:142: Execute setxkbmap failed: Error loading new keyboard description
$ ibus engine
m17n:te:inscript2

But not able to input telugu, for that i have to switch back to 'xkb:us::eng' and then to 'm17n:te:inscript2'

You observed it with ibus-m17n, not ibus-kkc.  That means that this issue is not ibus-kkc specific, as I wrote in comment #1.  Closing as CANTFIX.
