Indeed the dk-disks data for /dev/sdb1 looks empty:

  usage:
  type:
  version:
  uuid:

For my encrypted USB stick it looks like

  usage: crypto
  type: crypto_LUKS
  version: 256
  uuid: 52785e43-6bb9-4f25-985f-7522f606e138

Please copy & paste the output of

  sudo blkid -c /dev/null /dev/sdb1

here. Can you confirm that you have the "cryptsetup" package installed?
