Looks like plymouth.ignore-serial-consoles should be removed from kernel grub arguments.

Experimenting with grub options didn't improve behavior, see https://github.com/os-autoinst/os-autoinst-distri-opensuse/pull/9109.
I found out that QEMUVGA=qxl solves it. Asked on #testing to see if it is safe and got feedback from okurz:
"it's ok to use it but I advise setting this on the job template or the test suite. You can select an explicit machine "64bit-qxl" and describe in the test suite description why the standard does not work. The same problem might happen in other test suites as well so I do not see where kdump_and_crash is any special here"

Added QEMUVGA=qxl to extra_tests_kdump_multipath_lvm_encrypt lets see result of next build.

Bad idea, QXL is not supported on other archs.

Ah, sorry about this. I meant "I advise against setting this on the job template" :D This is why I suggested the explicit machine selection.

Added note to test suite on osd "it needs 64bit-qxl machine set in job template to run successfully on x86_64".
Let's see next run.
