I also have encrypted home and had this problem. The workaround appears to work for me. It was preventing me from openign files via sftp mounts with Geany, and now that works ok.
I've been getting all sorts of random crashes on 12.04 so hard to say if something else isn't wrong. It's been very unstable for me. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gvfs in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/995543 Title: [precise] .gvfs fuse mount is not functional after logout and subsequent login Status in eCryptfs: Confirmed Status in “gvfs” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Looks like bug 212789 is back, at least the symptoms are the same. When I log out, the .gvfs entry stays in /etc/mtab (checked by logging into a console as root). This seems to be a stale entry, though, as it is not listed in /proc/self/mounts. Still, when I log back in, any operation on .gvfs gives "Transport endpoint is not connected" (that means non-gnome apps cannot access remote files). After logout, # umount --fake (as root) gets rid of the entry. When logging in again with my user, .gvfs works.
