This is happening with us on Ubuntu 14.04.3 authenticating against ldap using sssd. I have changed my /etc/init/autofs.conf as recommended by Ruben (above #43) and it works for me as well.

The problems applies in both Breezy and Dapper. EDIT: confirmed with similar configuration on Intrepid with a NetApp filer hosting NFS. Server OS removed from summary. When I first try to access the mount point via cd or in Konqueror it does not exist. However, if I then restart autofs (/etc/init.d/autofs restart) everythin then works OK.
