Bug Description
I installed 19.04 in a VM using VirtualBox 6.0.6 from the .iso image (Live DVD).
I selected "English" as the language and the input method I selected was "Portuguese (Portugal)" which is my keyboard layout.
I created a password with special characters.
However, when we get to the login screen, the keyboard is automatically the one from the language installation, so the special characters always give a wrong password warning.
After I found a way of matching the special characters with the English keyboard, I get into the desktop and insert a Portuguese input method in the settings and change it in the top right of the window to "pt".
However, in every boot, in the login screen we still have "en" although "pt" appears below it if we click, but I have to change on every boot to "pt" since Ubuntu doesn't remember it.
Basically, this bug report is about the keyboard layout that uses the installation language and not the keyboard we select during installation.
