it works for me, so first off, is the user in the "fuse" group?  

  getent group fuse

to add them:

  adduser USER fuse

they need to be in the fuse group for ltspfs (a.k.a. LOCALDEV) to work.

what's the output on:

  ls -l /dev/fuse /usr/bin/fusermount

/dev/fuse needs to be writeable by the fuse group, and fusermount should be
executable by the fuse group.
 
if they are in the fuse group, and it still doesn't work, does anything show up
with:

  mount | egrep /media/USER

then it may be an issue with GNOME not recognizing the /media/USER/* mounts for
some reason.

i'm having this same problem, although simply adding /var/lib/pulse to rw_dirs
didn't solve it for me. i had to manually create /opt/ltsp/i386/var/lib/pulse,
and even after doing that, it still didn't work.

the same code (ltsp* and ldm* versions) works fine with a lenny LTSP chroot,
even with a squeeze server. so there's something in pulseaudio that changed
since lenny.

please file a bug report in the debian bug tracking system
(http://bugs.debian.org),  preferrably using "reportbug" tool: 

  apt-get install reportbug
  reportbug ltsp-server

also on debian squeeze, or debian lenny? or debian lenny with backported ltsp
packages from squeeze?

no universal log file... look around in /var/log/* for anything meaningful. i
haven't found much for this myself.

live well,
