I am having this problem as well with both Thunar and pcmanfm. I prefer using Nautilus, even if that will replace my XFCE desktop with the one from GNOME. The home folder does not seem to work, but Thunar seems to open the subfolders (Music, documents, videos, pictures, blah blah blah...) without problem.
Running "ls -al" seems to work correctly on my end.

I am using Ubuntu 11.10 Oneiric as well.
