I tried your setup on Wayland and got somewhat different result:
switching stuck on Thai using Win+Space main shortcut,
but works OK with Capslock as I have it as my main shortcut also.

Anyway, this is probably upstream issue with XKB configuration files of particular layout.
Similar was already reported: see bug 432436.
I suggest to report upstream, as it was done here:
