  USB keyboard does not work after grub, and until after encrypted root

Bug description:
  After an upgrade from xubuntu 13.04 (kernel 3.8.xx) to xubuntu 13.10 (kernel 3.11.x)  my wireless USB keyboard refuses to work,
  but only after grub starts the boot process. The keyboard works in BIOS and
  also within the legacy grub menus, but then fails when I am asked to enter the crypt-setup passphrase to unlock my
  root partition. Once unlocked (with help of an old PS/2 keyboard), the kernel apparently has access to additional
  modules and the wireless keyboard begins to work again. This problem does not happen when I start xubuntu 13.10 with the old 3.8.xx kernel. Thanks!
