Gnome-Shell both shifts layout switch

Hi, i'm using both shifts to switch my layout. Everything works ok, but i tried to use Gnome Shell.
Gnome Shell 3.18 doen't support both shifts layout toggle, so i modified xkb options trough dconf editor and set it to shifts_toggle. It works, but only when i pressed left shift at first and then right shift. In other case it doesn't switch my layout.

$ gnome-shell --version
GNOME Shell 3.18.2
$ uname -a
Linux thinkpad 4.2.5-1-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Tue Oct 27 08:13:28 CET 2015 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Re: Gnome-Shell both shifts layout switch

Surprisingly, if I set in options layout switching to alt+shift and then change switching method through console, it working normal.

setxkbmap -layout us,ru -option grp:shifts_toggle
