I've seen similar behaviour recently intermittently on releng-9.1 on an laptop (HP) with USB keyboard, and like you said I had also seen it a number of years ago when 8.0 first came out with a desktop with USB keyboard (iirc, it was an HP as well). It seems fine most of the time but occasionally it won't respond to keyboard input, especially if I've accidentally left the computer for a few moments before attempting to enter the passphrase. Vaguely remember it was something to do with AHCI but it was years ago and given it's not a massive problem the now I haven't bothered to look it up again.
