Description jokubas.lekevicius 2017-10-30 12:59:30 UTC 
How to reproduce:
System Setting -> Keyboard Settings
Choose any wanted layout or setting and click "Apply".
Keyboard layout or other settings are now changed!
You can click "Cancel" in the Authentication window, because the settings have already changed

Expected behavior:
Keyboard locale not changed until user entered authentication information.

What happens:
Keyboard locale changed

I tried this in an older version of Manjaro and it was still like this. About a month old one, if that helps.

Currently on
System Settings version: 5.11.2
KDE Plasma version: 5.11.2
KDE Frameworks version: 5.39.0
QT version: 5.9.2
Kernel version: 4.9.58-1-MANJARO
64bit

Hi jokubas! Thank you for your report!

Can you tell us what display manager did you use to login? Are you still experiencing that same problem?

Regards,
Marcelo Lacerda.
