That is because loadkeys is for the tty. In X you would use setxkbmap
or your WM/DM provided tools for setting it. setxkbmap comes as part
of the package 'setxkbmap' in guix.
For SDDM and SLIM the fact that it's just en_US is a bug in our
invocation of it (or upstream? I forgot, simply because I opened
a bug report long time ago not to think about reasons why this
happens).
