Title:
  encrypted passphrase prompt not shown on external display

Status in plymouth package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I upgraded my laptop with an external display from 17.04 to 17.10 and
  now the prompt for entering my encrypted passphrase only appears on
  the laptop's internal display. I didn't realize this and presumably
  the laptop was stuck waiting for my passphrase when I went to bed and
  sometime in the middle of the night the battery ran out and I was
  awoken by a loud beep from the laptop. That was rather unpleasant but
  not terribly relevant to the bug.
