The layout is less of an issue, as long as the program analyzing the sounds of your keyboard can diferentiate between all keys, then it can remap to QWERTZ, AZERTY or sny other layout.
However, this attack seems quite involved, so if you are targeted, the attacker could find out the layout in use ahead of time (here in Sweden you are unlikely to find a person using anything but a Swedish layout), they could also fo some social engineering, and hold a chat conversation with you while using your phone to record keystrokes, it would take a while, but over time they could probably get a decently accurate map of your keyboard.
