I can confirm that Ricardo's solution works for me, too. This appears to
work because the encrypted home directory is actually a sub-mount of
/home, thus requiring rbind rather than bind to work. In all likelihood,
this is probably correct behavior--just not intuitive or well-
documented.

My recommendation is to document the issue in the schroot (and possibly
ecryptfs) README, and perhaps adding a working example to the default
schroot.conf file or a named sub-directory. Currently, schroot is
shipping with configurations for default, desktop, minimal, and sbuild.
Perhaps simply adding another configuration directory for "encrypted-
desktop" or similar would be the easiest path forward.
