I have the same setup.

This is a known problem, which is more a dracut problem than a FAI
problem. The fix is described in this posting of the debian bug:

https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=731244#24

Since I'm also the maintainer of dracut, I will think about adding a
patch to Debian's dracut version.
