What does "more or less the same" mean? What is the exact content of this file?

The /etc/init/ttyN.conf files are *not* all the same, precisely because plymouth and tty1 conflict with each other in the graphical VT case.

The answer to the question, "what is supposed to tell pymouth to dismiss its splash screen", is /etc/init/plymouth-stop.conf. Your /etc/init/ttyS1.conf probably has a race with this upstart job.
