[Bug 1979974] [NEW] odd interaction with encrypted zfs

[Dimitri John Ledkov]

Public bug reported:

odd interaction with encrypted zfs

with encrypted zfs install on Ubuntu Desktop, upon boot it seems as if
plymouth is not shown, but is hidden.

i have to press Esc to switch to plymouth-text input, press Esc again to
get the usual plymouth graphical encryption password input.

As if, somewhere, something doesn't tell plymouth to really show itself,
like it used to be the case with pure LUKS encrypted installs.

I will retest this behaviour with LUKS encrypted installs, to see if
something in Plymouth/initramfs-tools/zfs-linux/cryptsetup needs to
change.
