I just updated Mobian today on my PinePhone, and now suddenly the keyboard quit working on the disk encryption screen.  I'm unable to enter my password.  Is there anything I can do?

I can see the keyboard, but I can't tap on any of the buttons.

I had the same issue. Ended up just re-imaging the phone in order to get access again.

Yikes! Thanks for the heads-up, I'll hold off on any updates at least until doing an image backup of the eMMC. (I do one periodically anyway.)
