In journalctl, I see this and I think it is the problem:

Yes, this is the problem. Someone was having a very similar problem at work recently with multipath. The problem is that LVM is checking for volumes before raid has finished checking. The raid device is getting created, but it's too late, LVM has already found the PV on the raw disk. I think if the raid version was different, LVM wouldn't be able to see the PV, but it would be difficult to change that now. If you only have LVM volumes on the raid, then add the following line to your /etc/lvm/lvm.conf in the devices section:
filter = [ "r/sd.*/" ]

Then you will need to regenerate the initramfs by running:
dracut -f --kver kernel-version
"kernel-version" is the full name of the kernel. e.g. The latest kernel package I have installed is "kernel-4.15.7-300.fc27.x86_64", so I would run:
dracut -f --kver 4.15.7-300.fc27.x86_64
You can remove the dracut-config-generic package to go back to smaller files if you want.
