            Don't run this command as root/sudo ! Instead run it as user.



            gsettings get org.gnome.settings-daemon.peripherals.keyboard numlock-state 


            To turn on the numlock type



            gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.peripherals.keyboard numlock-state 'on'


            Maybe programatically setting numlock will help you, based on numlock being reverted when switching keyboard layouts.
