Public bug reported: Hi, this is a splitoff of bug #1506139
I'm usually using a setup with three partitions on a disk Partition 1: plain ext4 boot partition mounted on /boot Partition 2: luks-encrypted swap Partition 3: luks-encrypted btrfs for / /home ... but on one of my systems the boot process hangs at the point where it would ask for the password for the second time (first password prompt is for /-partition 3, which works). Using the debug shell shows that a process like /lib/systemd/systemd-cryptsetup attach sda2_crypt /dev/disk/by-id/ata- SanDisk_SDSSDHII480G_*****-part2 none luks,swap,discard is alive and has send it's password-query to /run/systemd/ask-password/sck.* but there is no process to listen for it and query for the password, so it waits forever.
