What are you powering the Pi5 with?
If it's not PD enabled or, if it is, it doesn't have a 5A @ 5V mode the Pi5 will pause when booting from USB (that your SSD shows as /dev/sda suggest USB connection not PCIe/NVMe) expecting you to press the power button to confirm that's what you really want to do.
If you do confirm it will restrict total current to bus powered USB devices to 600mA.
Best fix: use the official 27W PSU (or maybe the new 45W one though I've not tested that).
Second best fix: use another USB PD supply that has a 5A @ 5V mode
Worst fix: tell the Pi5 to assume a 5A supply but that's just masking the symptoms and not really a fix.
