Mmm, it's weird. I usually make frugal installations for testing
purposes which are performed in English and once the system is
installed I add a Spansih keyboard layout (not even the locale, just
add a new layout to get the right keyboard mapping because my keyboard
is also Spanish). But this has never been a problem, I can choose
the layout on the fly which is is automatically applied :-?

Ouch! That's a bit overwhelming for a keyboard layout issue, but if now
is working it should be fine. Maybe it was a missing package that now
is there.
