Indeed the generated /var/lib/dpkg/info/lvm2.postinst does not start
lvm2-lvmetad.socket at all, even though debian/rules calls

dh_systemd_start --restart-after-upgrade \
	lvm2-lvmetad.service \
	lvm2-lvmpolld.service
dh_systemd_start --no-restart-on-upgrade \
	lvm2-lvmetad.socket \
	lvm2-lvmpolld.socket

So this could be a bug in dh_systemd_start that misinterprets the
--restart arguments, or a more subtle thing -- running the build with
DH_VERBOSE=1 should get an insight.

Title:
  lvm2 not starting lvm2-lvmetad on package install

Status in lvm2 package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in lvm2 source package in Xenial:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  [Impact]

   * On Xenial after installing lvm2, you must reboot before you are able to run vgcreate. 
   * The package installer should be starting lvmetad.service. 
   *  $ sudo vgcreate localvg
    /run/lvm/lvmetad.socket: connect failed: No such file or directory
    WARNING: Failed to connect to lvmetad. Falling back to internal scanning.
    Please enter a physical volume path.
    Run `vgcreate --help' for more information.

  [Test Case]

   * Running the below commands result in the following error.
   
     $ sudo apt install lvm2
     $ sudo pvcreate /dev/sdb1 
     $ sudo vgcreate localvg
    /run/lvm/lvmetad.socket: connect failed: No such file or directory
    WARNING: Failed to connect to lvmetad. Falling back to internal scanning.
    Please enter a physical volume path.
    Run `vgcreate --help' for more information.

  [Regression Potential]

   * Solution TBD, opening the bug so I don't forget this in the midst
  of a sprint.

   * discussion of how regressions are most likely to manifest as a
  result of this change.

   * It is assumed that any SRU candidate patch is well-tested before
     upload and has a low overall risk of regression, but it's important
     to make the effort to think about what ''could'' happen in the
     event of a regression.

   * This both shows the SRU team that the risks have been considered,
     and provides guidance to testers in regression-testing the SRU.

  [Other Info]
   
   * Anything else you think is useful to include
   * Anticipate questions from users, SRU, +1 maintenance, security teams and the Technical Board
   * and address these questions in advance
