First I am really quite happy with the last update but I miss the support for the SD card in Adroid apps. It worked with "mount-sdcard" from openrepos in the previous OS version but now there does not seem to be a way. I tried symbolic links and bindfs to no avail.
Can anyone maybe suggest a solution?

Nothing significant was altered from SailfishOS 3.1.0 to 3.2.0 WRT the handling of SD cards.
Hence mount-sdcard and crypto-sdcard continue to work fine.
But some flawed change seems to have been introduced with SailfishOS 3.2.0 in AlienDalvik (the Android runtime environment) WRT the location of the /storage/sdcard0 mount point, see "Android's default SD card path broken in SFOS 3.2.0".
Still, with a proper Android file-manager (e.g. OI Filemanager) everything is accessible as usual.
Well, there was none, except maybe implicitly "wait for this to be fixed by Jolla". ;\
Note that I cannot and hence did not test the peculiarities of the AOSP 8 based AlienDalvik, as I use an Xperia X, currently.
My answer was not meant to provide a solution for you, it was merely intended to assure you that your issue is not caused by the basic mounting mechanisms (with or without mount-sdcard), but something else (e.g. AlienDalvik's extensive use of bindmounts in v8).

cryptowithmmcblk1in the commands.Maybe your issue is identical to "Android storage on SD card after 3.2.0.12 update?", I cannot tell by reading both descriptions.
