I would have expected you to get a warning from YaST about having other file systems interfering with the subvolumes. Such as /home, and a bunch of stuff under /var. Did that happen? When you ssh in, what do you see with the df command? Can you see the /var/log/YaST2 directory? I tried to replicate your problem. I did get the warning, but said to continue. I did _not_ see the failed dependency messages you got. But, due to the btrfs subvolumes being mounted over /var after the installation completed, a lot of directories and files that were in /var are masked by the additional mounts.
