Bug Description

Booted ubuntu installer live iso, got as far as "Create LVM volume group", which presents a list of Devices which are invisible. The tab key clearly steps through the invisible devices, but as they are invisible i cant see which to choose. As a sometimes workaround, by hitting the spacebar on each invisible choice, the size is shown, and i can sometimes deduce from that which device it is, tho if several devices are the same size even that doesn't help.

I just ran in to this on Ubuntu 22.04 server, upgraded to the latest installer. I don't have debug output, because I'm installing on another machine.
