There has been some change in behaviour for me in Kubuntu alpha-3, now the splash screen always fails to appear, and during boot I see only the blinking "_" in the upper-left corner of the screen. When booting the LiveCD it stays there for a while until normal bootup messages appears (starting with «Setting preliminary keymap» or something like that). When booting an installed system it just stops there. I assume this is due to the bootup process stopping to ask me for my LUKS passphrase, but since usplash doesn't work I don't get the prompt either, so I'm stuck.
As with alpha-2 it boots up fine once I remove "splash" from the command line.
