Ibus behavior for alphabet input is a bit complicated. Since I don't
have such complication, the following may not be correct down to the
details.
(Let me assume you are using GNOME)
Start system configuration panel and open "Region & Language".
You should install input source manually for ibus-rime or any other
method. Most CJK input method panel has Gear icon which let you
configure details.
(I don't have ibus-rime, so the following is example of ibus-anthy. But
the principle should be the same.)
Clicking gear icon while selecting your favorite IM should open an
Set-up dialog. There is a tab for "Typing method".
There you find "Keyboard layout". In my case "Default", "us", "jp", ...
For US and JP, I can use these to set up instead of leaving it as
"default". For Russian, this trick may not work. But worth trying.
