[Bug 1043755] [NEW] Plymouth screen hangs on shutdown

[Marco M Scannadinari]

Public bug reported:

Ocasionally, when I shut down, I am sent to the plymouth splash screen as usual, however the ubuntu logo and the progress dots are static - they are not moving. This has been happening more recently over the past week.
The hard drive LED on my case is not lit up at all when this happens.
