There is a bug in the support of sun disk labels in parted (#237410) that partman tries to workarount but the code seams not to be perfect. I am not sure whether you hit this or some different unknown problem. In order to find whether the problem is related to some bug in my workaround or not do the following: exit from partman and then start it again. If it still doesn't see the partition table then the bug is in parted. If it sees the partition table then the bug is in my workaround.
