Oh, interesting. The code in cryptsetup to select whether to prompt via
plymouth is here in /lib/cryptsetup/cryptdisks.functions:
if [ -x /bin/plymouth ] && plymouth --ping; then
KEYSCRIPT="plymouth ask-for-password --prompt"
keyscriptarg=$(echo -e "$keyscriptarg")
else
KEYSCRIPT="/lib/udev/watershed /lib/cryptsetup/askpass"
fi
Is /dev/sda2 a luks volume, or a non-luks volume? (There are separate
code paths for each) Could you try adding some debug statements to this
code, to find out what's preventing cryptsetup from talking to plymouth?
