Title:
cannot enter encryption password in GUI

Bug description:
I am running Ubuntu 17.10 Desktop on a Dell XPS 2720, under which VirtualBox
5.2.0 is running.
Within VirtualBox I installed a 2nd level 17.10 Desktop and checked off
encryption during installation (forcing LVM to be used). The install went
flawlessly, then I tried to reboot and it asked for the password (in GUI mode)
to access the encrypted disk, but when I typed it no asterisks came up and it
never accepted my typing.
However, when I booted in recovery mode (textually) it asked for the
password in text, I entered it, Ubuntu accepted it, then I hit resume
boot up and it booted up into the GUI. This bug seems NOT to be
present in a bare metal environment only when running under VirtualBox
(I have not tested other virtualization technologies, just VirtualBox
5.2.0)
Thanks,
Stuart
