Interesting. On a machine where I have no such issues, I can see
in journalctl info at shutdown:
Dec 13 15:44:14 zira systemd[1]: Stopping Load/Save Random Seed...
[...]
Dec 13 15:44:14 zira systemd[1]: Stopped Load/Save Random Seed.
but no such lines on a machine where the issue is present.
Any idea of the cause of the difference?
