Yes. Sometimes I press a Fx by accident.

Title:
  When decrypting the disk, every keystroke is registered as a character
  of the password. Even with backspace this happens

Status in plymouth package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Even Control + Alt + Del doesn't work, the Control is registered as a
  character of the password just like backspace. It seems that this can
  be triggered by pressing the Fx keys to get the text-based decryption
  screen and then going back to the GUI decryption screen. I tested here
  in a VM and if I press F1, the text-based screen ppears; if I press
  F2, the GUI appears, the F3, the text-based and so on). The only way
  to workaround this issue is force rebooting the computer using the
  physical button.

  Version: 0.9.5-0ubuntu3
  Kubuntu 21.04
