First, we are not your debugging service. I do offer professional security consulting which includes this type of engineering, and it runs $250/hour and you have to order at least a day. That said, you can narrow down "it hangs" by running cryptsetup with strace. Do not use a secret password for that as it will show up in the trace data. The last operation you see is the one that hangs. If it is still unclear to you what the problem is, post the trace here (but remember the bit about the non-secret password!).
