Bug Description
spinner theme, sometimes does not render splash without output
desktop installer initrd starts plymouthd, executes show-splash, then casper md5check starts.
Sometimes the progress bar and splash are shown with all the messages.
Sometimes the screen remains black, but upon pressing ESC, one can see plymouth-text messages. pressing ESC again, rerenders the splash with casper-md5check progress bar with progress message, and file under check message, but not the Ctrl+C message.
So plymouthd is there, and accepting input, but choosing not to paint things?
From the 20200408 image.
It is as if plymouth theme has a delay built in, and despite show splash.... it is not shown.
When booting with plymouth:debug set, splash is rendered straight away.

Could you include the journal log from a buggy boot? even without plymouth debug it might stil give some hints?
