BTW, is there any possibility your code is invoking GTK3 APIs
from a thread != main GTK event loop thread ? If so, that is
a sure way to get non-deterministic wierd behaviour with GTK.
Commit 5f3aee85771c ("p2v: Remove GDK thread synchronization.",
2016-06-03) covered this, I think.

Assuming GTK3, you can use gsettings to change layout for apps
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.input-sources sources
"[('"xkb"','"us"'),('"xkb"','"fr"'),('"xkb"','"it"')]"
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.input-sources current 1
this can be done dynamically on the fly too
Wow that seems really flexible!
