I think that 'debci setup’ only prepares a schroot environment to use as a testbed, so you need to use:
  
  $ adt-run --user debci foobar.changes --- schroot debci-sid-amd64

where I’m not completely sure about the name of the environment, it may be different for you.

LXC uses a different container format and you need to use a different command for building. For LXC I had to use ’act-build-lxc’, e.g.

  $ sudo adt-build-lxc debian sid

will build you a LXC container for sid.

Seconded. They are usually quite responsive :)
