odd?
the countdown should be 3 OR 5 sec and not 4
and what key are you hitting ?
hit the < esc> button to go to the text and turn off "plymouth"
that will inform you as to where in the boot it is sticking

Almost sounds like the hardware clock isn't running...or maybe just not interrupting.
I can easily see a 5 second clock showing 4 (countdown to 0 from 4 is 5 seconds).
