I think it can lockup or not depending more on random matters than the
actual presence of -dummy (I may be wrong here). Some people have it
lockup with dummy.

When you enable -dummy, the behaviour can be different from writer to
writer. Some have different timing conditions and behave differently
at the "fixup" stage at the end of the writing if they are in dummy
mode.
