Unfortunately changelog for this RPM starts from the point it was
created, but package itself is clone of earlier packages. In G04
changelog you will find

- /etc/dracut.conf.d/50-nvidia.conf (TW/sle15)
  * exclude "plymouth" module from building initrd (boo#1047225)

This is general dracut packaging problem on *SUSE, it should install
files provided by package under /usr/lib, not /etc, allowing
administrator to redefine them. Anyway, files are shell scripts (at
least, currently) so you can simply add configuration file that checks
and removes content of omit_dracutmodules variable. Something like

omit_dracutmodules="${omit_dracutmodules//plymouth}"
