Stuck at virtual terminal login

I am having trouble signing into a virtual terminal.  This issue is only
happening on one computers I have Guix installed on.

If I follow these steps I can reproduce this issue after multiple
install attempts.

1) install Guix
   https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/guix/guix-system-install-1.2.0.i686-linux.iso.xz
2) reboot at the end of the install process
3) sign into a virtual terminal
4) do a pull and system reconfigure
5) reboot the system
6) decrypt root partition (keyboard is working)

When I get to a virtual terminal prompt the system seems to go
unresponsive.  As I type on the keyboard nothing shows up at the login
prompt.  Alt + function key does not switch to another virtual
terminal.

I can however sign in using ssh and use the computer.

Output of `guix describe`:
