I have done a clean install of 12.10 AMD64 from a USB drive to a 500 GB hard drive. It is set up with the full-disk encryption and LVM options. The installation went smoothly with no errors, and the system boots up and seems to work just fine except for one problem.
My /home directory is backed up on a 1.0 TB USB hard drive that is also set up with encryption and LVM. When I plug it in to the new system, It appears to mount, but the icon doesn't show up on my desktop or in the launcher and it doesn't show up in Nautilus, /mnt, or /media.
In 12.04, when I connect this drive it automounts and I am prompted for the passphrase; once I enter it, it appears in the launcher and in Nautilus, so this appears to be a problem just in 12.10.
The output of dmesg looks like this:

The drive does appear when I run fdisk -l:

I installed gnome-system-tools and ran Users and Groups. My user does have the "Access external storage devices automatically" option checked.
I verified that automount is set to true in gsettings.
I attached another, unencrypted mass storage device, and it was automounted and displays normally, so I am leaning toward the encryption as being the culprit, but I'm not sure.
I still have a 12.04 machine that recognizes the drive, so I can use it to compare outputs. The user name on both machines--and the owner of the drive I set when I set up the USB drive--are the same.
Has anyone had a similar problem and found a solution?
