/home seems to be automounted with autofs (see 2nd to last line above).  

I'm not sure how autofs works (I've never used it) but is your autofs setup
to automatically mount user home directories on /home? 

If that's the case, I believe that doing:

ls /home

will not show anything.  However, try to do:

ls /home/<user home directory>

autofs should automatically mount that user's home directory and you should
see its contents.  Again, this is speculation since I've never used it
myself.
