I'm surprised to continue seeing such behavior even on the latest release or 17.04. In my case, I'm running inside of a Hyper-V VM. I am able to type in my password only when using recovery mode. I will attempt to edit my startup config to disable the clean splash screen, but I think it's ridiculous that we have to manually modify configuration files just to type in a password for such a basic feature.
