I did more testing on my system and it is very hard to type fast enough
that passphrase is accepted by cryptsetup. In most cases, timour
happens, and I get message printed to enter recovery console with ESC.
This message repeats with each keypress (if I try to enter password
again).
If I press ESC, I get into recovery console and I can workaround the problem by
issuing the following commands:
start cryptdisks-enable (entering passphrase)
mount -a
exit
Boot the continues and everything is fine.
It looks like that when timeout happens, cryptsetup loose keyboard input
as it is stolen by mountall ESC/recovery console handling. I suspect
timout should be somehow disabled until cryptdisks-enable job is running
(or any other job requiring user text input).
