Found out some more. When it hangs with this message "...219", the sddm.service is actually running, and an X-server is running, but no other process that sddm should start (sddm-helper, kdeinit, ...). Restarting sddm.service with systemctl doesn't help. See this:

mcp@pronath3:~$ ps axuw|grep sddm
root 1948 0.0 0.0 162660 12276 ? Ssl 10:12 0:00 /usr/bin/sddm

mcp@pronath3:~$ sudo kill 1952

# now, after killing the X server, sddm restarts the X server and does everything else correctly.
# Login screen shows up, and the other processes get started:
