Bug Description

I have an encrypted root filesystem on /dev/dm-1 which I unlock at boot with my password. After changing the system's keyboard layout to Dvorak with "sudo dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration", the keyboard layout for the disk unlock prompt is still QWERTY. There also does not seem to be any knob in /etc/initramfs-tools to load the proper keymap at boot.

Can't seem to repro anymore. The disk unlock prompt changed to Dvorak at some point.
