I'm going to reassign this issue to sddm and merge it with the existing
bug report.

VMs are typically more prone to have low entropy during bootup and there
are some mitigations for that (like installing something like haveged or
using virtio rng).

I'm using sddm, and booting the system normally (not on a virtual machine).

Indeed, typing random characters did the job: the system startup
continues after enough entropy is created,

Is is sufficient if you simply wiggle the mouse or type random
characters for a while?

You might have a problem of not having enough entropy. There was a
recent kernel change in that regard.
