Yeah. AIUI, Dropbox is currently limited to syncing its own folder. You can use links to sync files while maintaining their existing positions, but I don't think you can simply tell it to "sync folder X as well". Of course, if you simply want to sync ~/Documents, and only that, just tell Dropbox to sync exactly that.
