If I change layout preferences, keys work well, but after a while or after reboot it stops working. If I change layout preferences, it starts working back. Changing via panel applet works everytime fine. 
Also it forgets that I chose Mac layouts and switches to standard ones.
System is Mint Xfce 19.3, plugin version is 0.8.1

Confirm. FreeBSD 12.1, plugin version 0.8.1. Some time ago, before last xfce4 update, layout change works fine after reboot.

What does the following command report?
$ setxkbmap -print -verbose 10

Furthermore, does this bug occur after removing the panel plugin? Does is affect a new user account?

After removing from desktop panel D-Bus parameters plugin and add to them second language, all work fine. Keyboard plugin removing give some result, but not permanently.
