Seeing this in Maverick too. The attached screenshot shows that you simply need
1- to have an encrypted home directory (done at install time)
2- to check the "Don't ask for password on login" option in the user settings

Symptoms are as described above; ICE Authority errors, Nautilus not
having permissions to launch, etc.

Strangely enough, if you switch to a virtual terminal (ctrl+alt+F1) and
do a "sudo service gdm restart" and then click your username, it logins
properly and decrypts the home directory, allowing GNOME to read your
prefs etc. So it seems this happens only on the first login attempt,
subsequent logins work.
