--- Comment #2 from David O'Rourke <dor.bsd at fastmail.fm> ---
Disabling newcons does help the situation, however, the first password attempt
is always broken, with key presses going missing.
Searching around, there are threads on the FreeBSD forum going back to 2009
reporting similar issues with USB keyboards and GELI passphrases at boot.
(eg.

This issue seems to have existed for a long time.
