In a VM, I've reproduced some very strange behavior with plymouth and
cryptsetup.  On a new install, I see:

 - plymouth ask-for-password exits non-zero, and returns an empty string to the 
cryptsetup hook
 - if I hit Esc to switch to the text interface instead of the graphical 
splash, then the first passphrase attempt after switching always fails, and the 
second one always succeeds
 - when in graphical mode, plymouth ask-for-password never return non-zero

I don't have any explanation for this behavior at the moment.  It has
also not been reproducible on my laptop (real hardware), where I use
crypted root with cryptsetup+plymouth, but I will do a test shortly.
