Title:
  Not able to enter disk encryption passphrase on startup

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  For every kernel after 3.19.0-26 I'm not able to enter the disk
  encryption passphrase on startup.

  For 3.19.0-26 while I enter  the passphrase, I see visual feedback.
  See this example:
  https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B_6wV4xlS6wCVXc4aC1MMzBaS2s/view

  For other kernel versions above 3.19.0-26, I'm not able to enter the passphrase.
  I don't get any visual feedback when I type the passphrase.

  It also doesn't work when I type the passphrase and press "enter".

  See example for kernel 3.19.0-33:
  https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B_6wV4xlS6wCcUlhWUNpTUhsNjQ/view

  It feels like there is no focus on the input field.
