That is not the Postfix chroot!
Apologies, here is the correct directory:

as you can see I have even set the ownership to postfix to make it
easier, but no joy, I am getting the same old

Hi,
I never understood why Debian thinks that the saslauthd_path needs to be
defined in its configuration file (smtpd.conf) when it is even the
default (compiled) path. Anyway, correct your path setting according to
the documentation.
/usr/share/doc/cyrus-sasl-2.1.19/options.html
<TD>saslauthd_path</TD><TD>SASL Library</TD>
<TD>Path to saslauthd run directory (<b>including</b> the "/mux" named
pipe)</TD>
<TD>system dependant (generally won't need to be changed)</TD>
In a former mail you had written:
I did change that to
saslauthd_path: /var/spool/postfix/var/run/saslauthd
I am pretty sure you will succeed then.
Alexander
