[Bug 1459591] [NEW] Keyboard stays US after french selection in Try mode

[Kick In]

Public bug reported:

Hi,

When starting the Vivid 15.04 livecd (on a usb key), I don't change
keymap at grub time, just let it boot, then it ask me if I want to
install or to try ubuntu. If I select Try ubuntu, after selecting
French, it still keep using US keymap. I need to change the Text Entry
Setting to get it work as expected.

I think it must be automatically switched to default country keymap.

If selecting install, the text entry remains EN-US, but ubiquity change
its own keymap, and the keyboard works as expected inside ubiquity after
keyboard selection.

If selecting french language at grub time and select 'try ubuntu',
keyboard is correctly setup.
