Here you are the backtrace of plymouthd. While getting this I also noticed that if, while the fsck is in process and plymouth is not hanged, I switch to vt1 and wait until I see an [ Ok ] (I don't know which boot step prints this as it's the only thing on vt1) and then switch to vt7 plymouth terminates correctly and the gdm login appears on vt7.
