This is a sporadic issue due to BTRFS kernel messages spamming the tty and breaking the needle matching.
**Possible workarounds**:
* send ctrl-l to clear the tty if the login needle doesn't match.
* the loglevel could be changed (maybe even before login) using `Alt+SysRq+2` (or something like that - see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_SysRq_key).
