sorry, looks like a few mails got lost in the stack here.

if you set dbc_remember_admin_pass='true' in /etc/dbconfig-common/config
does it work correctly?  it's possible that pre-seeded passwords might
be explicitly forgotten during the debconf configuration of the package.

btw that corresponds to the debconf dbconfig-common/remember-admin-pass
debconf key, which you can also maybe preseed.
