USB Keyboard in FileValut OSX
I had this problem of keyboard not working after I enabled Filevault on my Clover Hackintosh startup disk. It's not that hard to get out of the bind if you have a working mac to which you can attach your newly encrypted disk. Basically, get the code for AptioInputFix.efi from the git distro at https://github.com/vit9696/AptioFixPkg, and build it by simply executing macbuild.tool script that's in the root directory of the distro. Mount the EFI partition of your encrypted drive, and copy the newly built AptioInputFix.efi file to where all the other .efi files are, should be something like
<your EFI mount point>/EFI/CLOVER/drivers64UEFI
I used the RELEASE version, but DEBUG should work too. After that, your keyboard should work when you try to start up from that disk.
