Hello and thank you for this bug report!

I though that we didn't need to have a special case for these encrypted
LVM but I have never tested to mount such encrypted disks.

Can you just try to mount it with 'gvfs-mount'? E.g.:
   $ gvfs-mount /dev/sdb1
(to find which argument you have to use (/dev/sdb1), you can launch 'df' command when disk is mounted, or (g)parted (need root rights) or fdisk or what you want ;) )
Do you have to give your password in the terminal or in an external window?
When the disk is mounted, can you give us the output of this command:
   $ gvfs-mount -li

Can you also launch the dock with this command and post here all output messages that you'll have when you try to mount your encrypted LVM?
   $ cairo-dock -l debug --colors | sed -n "/shortcuts\// {N;p;}"

Title:
  Shortcuts: Failed to open/mount encrypted LVM

Status in Cairo-Dock: Plug-ins:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I have a secondary harddisk in my system that contains a encrypted LVM. 
  This is displayed in Shortcuts as "160 GB Encrypted". If I middle-click the icon I just get the message "failed to mount ...".

  Expected behavior: 
  1) Open a password dialog to enter the LUKS password
  2) Show the filesystems in the encrypted LVM, so they can e mounted.

  I'm using cairo-dock 3.1.0 on Ubuntu 12.10 64bit.
