Impossible to show plymouth preview with "sudo plymouth --show-splash" after starting "sudo plymouthd"

Binary package hint: plymouth

Impossible to show plymouth preview with "sudo plymouth --show-splash" after starting "sudo plymouthd". I suppose it's caused by X-server. I've reported the same issue for burg-emu
