Also see 497313. When splashy was installed running under my custom kernel, initramfs for the stock kernel was not rebuilt due to that bug.
So when I booted under the stock kernel, splashy never loaded until after I unlocked the encrypted drives and normal boot began. Resume from hibernation worked under this scenario. VESA console prompted for the drive passwords, then resume began, then the splashy resume screen loaded and the progress bar worked, then my gnome screensaver password prompt came up. So it seems like the boot splash needs to turn itself off and restore to the text console immediately before resume from hibernation begins. Then the hibernation screen will load correctly.
