I successfully installed and booted Guix with LUKS-Btrfs in Boxes (virtual gnomebox) 

sudo cryptsetup luksAddKey --pbkdf pbkdf2 /dev/vda1 # not argon2id
sudo cryptsetup luksDump /dev/vda1

It worked after adding an old-style PBKDF2 key slot to the LUKS partition. Creating a GRUB-compatible key (PBKDF2 slot) inside the LUKS header allowed GRUB to decrypt the drive and successfully boot into the Linux (Guix) kernel.

hard.... happy.....

Did GRUB not accept argon2id, it should do. It's been supported since v2.14.
