Since upgrade from kubuntu 17.10 to kubuntu 18.04, I had the problem described in this post :
My successful workaround was to type my passphrase as if I had set it up from an azerty physical keyboard with a qwerty software layout. No big deal (and, I think, not the same bug ?), although I wanted to luksAddKey my true passphrase so I could avoid the bother.
However, when I gave the passphrase(s) to the prompt (as shown above), cryptsetup wouldn't recognize any of them, either the true one (azerty physical and software layout) or the weird one (azerty physical layout / qwerty software layout).
