E.g. is this a problem with lvm, >dm-crypt, kernel configuration, or something else? The LUKS part seems to succeed as you can access decrypted volume and see it's lvm2. And the LVM part doesn't work. Did you try a manual pvscan/vgscan after you get into the fallback shell? And I neither know your setup nor how LUKS/LVM works behind the curtain in detail, but CONFIG_DM_UEVENT may be important to trigger exactly the step you seem to be missing.
