On-Screen Keyboard & Multiple Language Support

I have multiple language support activated and I can switch the on-screen
keyboard between the different language displays. However, when setting focus
to the window in which I'm about to type in a different language, then I move
the mouse to the on-screen keyboard to start clicking the characters to type,
the keyboard display immediately switches back to the regular English
display. Clicking characters on the keyboard sometimes will generate English
characters (i.e. the keyboard switches back to English) and sometimes the
other language characters (i.e. the keyboard remains in the other language
even though its display is showing English). Can anybody figure out what's
going on?

I'm running Vista Ultimate SP1 and all available updates are installed.

Thanks

You might do better if you repost this to the windows.vista.hardware.devices

Thanks. I just did, though, since this has more to do with the on-screen
keyboard rather than a hardware keyboard, I'm concerned I may not get a reply
there. However, I did it just the same and hope I get a reply on eitehr group.
