I discovered this issue with Kubuntu 14.04 which I installed from scratch using a CD/DVD. During installation I selected full-disk encryption as well as an encrypted home directory -- my understanding is that home directory encryption also encrypts the swap space.
Below is the current state of the drives. Note that:
1. 'blkid' does not list swap, and /proc/swaps is empty; however,
2. /etc/crypttab has entries that apparentlly correspond to the encrypted disk as well as the swap, as does /etc/fstab; but
3. 'swapon' does not like the swap drive/s.
I only have a single physical disk (plus the optical drive).
