Ravel isn't consistent in this regard:
in this piece, "H" means plain b

in this other piece, "B" means plain b

I don't know about Swiss French, but here in France we rarely use "ut"
at all; it is merely used by snobbish people when referring to a
piece's tonality: "Sonate en Ut Majeur" (but regular people will just
say "Do Majeur").
