Module <layout> not showing changes

Bug Report

I’m Kubuntu 20.04 LTS, using i3wm. I set up the keybinding Super+space to change the keyboard layout. The module does its work of changing the keyboard layout and showing the change if clicked on. When the layout is changed with the shortcut, then the layout changes, but the change is not shown in the module.

Description

Affected module: layout Version used: latest git Relevant i3 section: # Start i3bar to display a workspace bar (plus the system information i3status finds out, if available) bar { position top status_command /home/enrico/bumblebee-status/bumblebee-status -m datetime pomodoro battery layout memory \ pasink pasource -p time.format="%H:%M" -t iceberg-rainbow }

How to reproduce

Simply install the bumblebee status bar and set a keybinding in the system for changing keyboard layout.

Great! Then I just need to call those functions with ctypes correctly, and bumblebee will finally have a working layout module 😃

Thanks a lot for your patience!

It does retrieve the layout correctly. It works!
