--- Comment #1 from Harald Sitter <sitter at kde.org> ---
That sounds more like a distro or plymouth bug. This is working fine with the
test script and plymouth 0.9.3 

https://phabricator.kde.org/source/breeze-plymouth/browse/master/test/plytest.sh$59

And also works fine on a neon user edition I just freshly installed.

Specifically the distro needs to make sure a suitable font (ideally noto sans)
is packed into the initrd otherwise rendering the bullet point may fail, which
I suspect is what is happening.

Seeing as you get the prompt field there isn't a whole lot that can go wrong,
it's literally just filling the prompt with as many bullets plymouth requests.
So either the bullet image is broken (which is simply rendered from text) or
plymouth fails to report a suitable bullet count.
