The PAM authentication succeeded, but authorisation failed I think.
Could you try running with "--verbose", and see if that shows
anything?

This is occuring inside PAM, so can mean that
- you really aren't in the sbuild group (what does "id tbm" show?)  If
  you just added yourself to the group, try logging back in to make
  sure your login session picked it up.
- The PAM authorisation step failed.  See /etc/pam.d/schroot.  It
  might even be something in e.g. common-account (this is all out of
  schroot's hands).  The default setup should work just fine, unless
  you did any additional customisation.


Regards,
Roger
