Ctrl -C, Ctrl -V not working in different keyboard layout

When I am in English, Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V works fine when I need to copy paste. But when I turn to Greek, Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V and basically no shortcut almost works in Greek.
So each time I have to alt shift and go back to English in order to user Ctrl+C to copy something. How can I apply this to the Greek keyboard profile?

EDIT

I also realized that when using NetBeans IDE 7.4,
I can copy and paste in Greek but I can't use the tonic system of the language over the words. In Aptana studio I can't use Copy and paste Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V
When using gedit everything works fine. Different software use different keyboard layout settings?

I recommend you subscribing to it to receive updates and marking it as affecting you to increase the bug "heat" score.

Workaround for some system hotkeys and two layouts (English and non-Latin): rebind all hotkeys in your local layout. For example instead of Ctrl+Alt+T use Ctrl+Alt+τ (Greek tau). That hotkey still works with the English layout. If you use English and two different non-Latin layouts this workaround helps only with one of them.
