I had the same problem with keyboard layout switching in FreeMind (java app) on Debian GNU/Linux 6.0.5 (squeeze). I also use scim for Japanese.

I've solved my problem in the next way:

$ sudo gedit /etc/scim/global
/SupportedUnicodeLocales = en_US.UTF-8 ----------> /SupportedUnicodeLocales = en_US.UTF-8,ru_RU.UTF-8

Reboot.

After that I can switch Ru and En layouts as usual. (Also it has somehow solved the problem with Japanese typing in FreeMind.)

I hope it may be useful for someone.
