You are absolutely right: my custom XKB configuration is causing the
bug. I tried starting without it, and keyboard worked.

I run this command in my .xsession:

xkbcomp -I$HOME/.xkb $HOME/.xkb/keymap $DISPLAY

In ~/.xkb, I have a manually crafted keyboard configuration that
places some special characters exactly where I want them.

How does the layout detection work?
