That's precisely the situation, yes. 32GB EBS volume. So, would either of the 
following work?

1. Provisioning an encrypted volume at the snapshot size, then extending the 
size of the volume.
2. Provisioning an unencrypted volume at the desired size.

Obviously #1 would be preferable.

There seems to be an issue related to encrypted disks -- possibly specifically 
related to creating an EBS encrypted volume which is larger than the backing 
snapshot.

Are you using an encrypted disk?
