I experienced the problem with a fresh install... but then I realized the issue was NOT present in an upgrade install. Went through things in gconf-editor, and I noticed /desktop/gnome/peripherals/keyboard/general/defaultGroup was 1 on the working configuration, and was set to -1 on the non-working configuration. I set the order in the Keyboard preferences to the same (USA followed by USA Dvorak), and set the defaultGroup to 1, and the issue went away. It appears there is no more default layout option in the Keyboard preferences.
I have a feeling that this isn't the same bug (but is the same symptom)--anyone else care to try?
Present in Lucid release as well.
