Yeah looks like the same issue as bug 1861470. As I understand it, the
kernel and grub (?) were modified to support the Ubuntu default spinner
theme. So that will now break other flavours like Lubuntu still using
the old theme. Those flavours should probably just be changed to use the
same plymouth theme as regular Ubuntu.

Title:
  BIOS logo reappears after the Lubuntu dots

Status in plymouth package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  This bug was briefly mentioned in lp 1861470, Daniel van Vugt
  suggested raising a new bug so this is it.  (sony ultrabook; vaio)

  Today's daily (2020-04-13) was installed as a QA-test, on
  sony vaio ultrabook (i5-9400u, 4gb, intel haswell-ULT)
  and on boot I see

  - encryption-key entry (text) screen  (full disk encryption)
  - (brief) black screen
  - vaio
  - plymouth (lubuntu dots)
  - vaio
  - sddm/greeter

  On shutdown I also see the vaoi logo again before the plymouth
  (lubuntu dots) appears too.

  To me the importance of this is extremely low; it doesn't impact
  operation, just a less than ideal boot sequence.

  Expected behavior:

  I'd like to not see the vaio (bios type) of screen during boot &
  shutdown as often..

  (this has occurred on prior ISOs, and I booted it a few times
  confirming results are as I describe, at least on this crappy vaio)
