Seems a permission issue.  su to root after the "auto" mount and take
a
look.  If you can see your file or can write a touch file then your user
may not be in the necessary owner/group to view/write to the structure.
Seen similar problems in upgrades... same user but the UID changed in the
upgrade and blinded the current user to older files that were preserved.  A
simple chmod command from root fixed the issue to restore proper
ownership.  Just a wag, but sometimes it's the little things.
