This needs to be able to connect to v1.2's auth-master socket. So first problem is to make it look in the correct directory:

base_dir = /var/run/dovecot

(or wherever your v1.2's base_dir is)

Then you'll also need to configure v1.2 to add auth-userdb socket on top of auth-master socket (if you didn't already have it). http://wiki.dovecot.org/LDA describes how to add auth-master socket. Just name it auth-userdb instead of auth-master.
