It's encrypted with dm-crypt (that is, using cryptsetup) directly over the
partition and without an LVM layer in between.

There is no random key, that's the whole point: I do NOT want an unattended
boot/resume, that's why I encrypted the swap with a non-random key in the
first place.

About the script not working, it depends on a lot of things in your
environment, so I think it's normal for it not to work if your setup is
different than mine.

Thanks,
