Cannot type characters that need Alt Gr key #100

Operating Systems

Server: Ubuntu 18.04 (kernel 4.15.0-29-generic)

Client: Windows 10 Home version 1830 (OS compilation 17134.167)

Barrier Version

2.1.0

Steps to reproduce bug

Alt Gr key does not work and characters such as @ { } [ ] # can't be used in the client. For example:

1- Try to write an @ with a Spanish keyboard in the client. You have to press Alt Gr+2.
2- Windows keyboard layout changes to english when you press Alt Gr+2 and a 2 is written instead of @. If Windows is configured only with Spanish keyboard, the language does not change but nothing appears when you press Alt GR + another key.

I also notices that the language switches back to Spanish if you press Shift+3 (this also types a ·).
