The keyboard map is used as the default when the user has not made a 
selection that overrides it.

Usually on a "clean" account, that will mean you will get that keyboard map, 
and when the session is saved - that is the KB map you will use.

You probably already have a different map saved in one of those files under 
[user.dt...] in your account.  So, what you need to do is select the keymap 
using the application in the tools stuff and then save your session setup.
