I did not have any problems with this. I described the installation process on my techblog. I installed Windows 7 first and encrypted it with Truecrypt. The Truecrypt loader is placed inside the master boot record. Then I installed Ubuntu 12.04 with the alternate CD, created a boot partition first (for /boot), then created a crypto volume and a LVM for the swap and root filesystem. I installed the GRUB loader in the volume boot record inside the boot partition. See my blog for the detailed installation process and screenshots. It is all working fine. If you installed Windows and Ubuntu the other way around you probably have to repair/re-install Grub inside the volume boot record in the boot partition. This is also documented on my blog.
