Which means "select qwerty variant for us layout and whatever is the
default for sk layout", which is definitely not what you want.
What you want is:

Option "XkbLayout" "us,sk"
Option "XkbVariant" ",qwerty"

I'm afraid such configuration is not and won't be supported by xkb.

There is no sk_qwerty layout in xkb anymore.
