A the moment I can see following solutions:

(1)
Make the lvchange_activate function in /usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/local-top/lvm2 a while loop which executes the "lvchange" command repeatedly until the root LV appears

(2)
Utilize udevd to create the LV devices while wait-for-root is waiting for the root LV to appear. A hack for doing so is to replace in /lib/udev/rules.d/69-lvm-metad.rules the line 96
  ACTION!="remove", ENV{LVM_PV_GONE}=="1", RUN+="/bin/systemd-run /sbin/lvm pvscan --cache $major:$minor --activate ay", GOTO="lvm_end"
with
  ACTION!="remove", RUN+="/sbin/lvm pvscan --cache $major:$minor --activate ay"
