Version 42.3 did fix an error with scheduled backups to encrypted
drives! I suspect that might be what you're hitting? Can you try the
snap and see if that fixes things? Might want to make a manual backup
first just to confirm everything is working.
snap install deja-dup --classic
sudo apt remove deja-dup
Maybe we should backport that patch to 20.04.

Title:
Backup doesn't automatically start when drive is inserted
Status in deja-dup package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
I have Deja Dup set up to automatically backup onto a removable drive
encrypted with LUKS every day. Each morning I would get a notification
saying that the backup will automatically start when the drive is
connected. When I insert the drive, it is automatically unlocked since
I have the password saved on the computer. But after waiting for
around half an hour the backup doesn't seem to have started. When I
open Deja Dup it says that the last backup was yesterday and the next
backup is today. Clicking the Back Up Now button starts the backup.
The drive is GPT partitioned with a single partition containing ext4
inside LUKS.
