To forum readers: Jason also submitted a support ticket for the same topic, and here is his latest update:
I finally resolved the issue. The concept that I did not understand and finally figured out through trial and error is that sync'd folders has to live outside of Dropbox on both computers, and only the sparseimage is in Dropbox. As a non-programmer, I never could figure out symbolic links, and thus always keep all my files in Dropbox and not in the Documents folder. So, my suggestion would be to make this more obvious to non-power users.
It's all working fine now.
We will update the help file to make this detail clearer.
Thanks to Jason for sharing this with us.
