I'm getting the idea, possibly incorrectly, that there is no
mdadm.conf in the initramfs. You can use lsinitrd to see if there's
one inside and what the size, time stamp is, to see if it's current.

It's definitely not assembling the array is the problem. I'm not sure
if boot param rd.md.uuid= is sufficient because IMSM RAID is actually
a container plus RAID, so there are two UUIDs that apply. You could
try:

rd.md.uuid=03afe6a1:b37c71b2:f9b7eb4e:9322a561
rd.md.uuid=1d2f6a80:99e713e3:73601439:2cdb477f

And see if dracut figures out which is which and assembles the
container first then the array. I also don't know for sure if : should
be replaced with - as is typically the case for filesystems.
