Another person reported this with WhisperBack (bd68705224328b7b61b5eb0b87a9ea01), and the logs pretend it worked:
Mai 12 08:38:33 amnesia systemd-localed[7930]: Changed X11 keyboard layout to 'de' model 'pc105' variant '' options ''
Mai 12 08:38:33 amnesia systemd-localed[7930]: Changing virtual console keymap to 'de' toggle ''

[...]
Mai 12 08:38:38 amnesia /usr/lib/gdm3/gdm-x-session[5860]: (**) Option "xkb_model" "pc105"
Mai 12 08:38:38 amnesia /usr/lib/gdm3/gdm-x-session[5860]: (**) Option "xkb_layout" "de"
In this last case, the logs indicate that the persistent volume is full, which can break stuff.
