Note: this is probably caused, in my case, by "udevadm trigger" being run in "/var/lib/dpkg/info/open-vm-tools-desktop.postinst configure".
This command is run by dpkg during install of open-vm-tools.

Replicated problem as follow :

in a terminal :

1 setxbkmap fr
2 setxkbmap -query -> returns fr layout
3 sudo udevadm trigger
4. setxkbmap -query -> returns us layout (gnome-session layout)

in syslog I can see gdm-x-session updating and the display blinks/freezes for a short period
