Hey,
I am cc-ing the SPICE developers mailing list in order to raise awareness of this user issue (apologies for cross-posting).
Unfortunately, due to limitations of the SPICE protocol, input is sent as keyboard scan codes to the remote machine rather than Unicode characters. This is the reason you are seeing the issues you describe. There may have been improvements since I last looked at this issue.
Thanks!
To/Dr, the answer is no. For details, or if you feel like playing around, read on.
At one point, I wrote the capability to select a "physical" keyboard layout prior to connecting (I believe Russian is one of the layouts), which allows me to convert Android keycodes to scan codes assuming that "physical" layout. However this would then require you to go the other way - having a Russian keyboard up on your mobile device at all times and switch to English remotely in order to type English. :)

Hi,--I am trying to use aSPICE with two keyboard layouts with a Windows 10 VM. The VM doesn't accept input in a secondary layout (Russian in this case) unless I switch my android keyboard to English and select Russian layout in the system tray selector. I've tried using both Gboard and Hacker's Keyboard.Any idea how to resolve this? This makes it almost impossible to use with alternate languages.
