ben - uuid changes are not always reflected until after a reboot...

follow THESE instructions and report back

1, determine your swap with 'fdisk -l'
2, do mkswap on your swap partition - RECORD THE UUID WHICH THIS COMMAND
OUTPUTS
3, now use this UUID to put into fstab and resume
files...(RESUME=UUID=<the-swap-partition-uuid-from-vol_ID
should go in /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/resume
4, update-initramfs -u
5, reboot normally after this finishes

when the system has restarted again - do 'swapon -s' to check if your
swap is active...and do 'ls -la /dev/disk/by-uuid/'

dont change any symlinks etc. just try these instructions
