I know nothing at all about encrypted volumes, nor do I have one to use for
testing purposes.
However a mount command should behave generically. e2 does not itself actually
do anything. I do think it's worth exploring what might be happening to trigger
your reported error. Can you provide any further insights e.g.
- effect of [un]mounting the device via your mountpoints menu
- effect of commands mount "/mnt/misc" (as distinct from >mount "/mnt/misc")
and even >mount /mnt/misc (no quotes)
- what happens when such commands are issued via a standard terminal
- if you build for udisks/devkit-disks operation, is there any device-relevant
debug message(s)
