In your Console, Administration, Hierarchy Configuration, Discovery methods.
for your "Active Directory User Discovery" (where Status = Enabled)
if you right-click on that, properties. in the "General" tab (the first one), are there valid containers listed there? It's usually something like LDAP://OU=SomeOuWhereYourUserAccountsLive,DC=your,DC=Fully,DC=Qualified,DC=Name
Recursive is usually Yes, Group excluded. (at least for us it is) and we use the Site Server as the account.
Your ADGD configuration should resemble something like this.

By chance do you happen to know System Discovery defaults?
Thanks
Some notes about system discovery, a system is only discovered if it is registered in DNS. So if there is an AD object a living OS has to be installed for ADSD to pick it up. You have to specify what domains where you want discovery to run. I would suggest enabling delta discovery with a 5 minute interval. There are different perspectives on this number. I use a short one because we have a large environment with multiple IT pros managing desktops through the University of Missouri. Select and additional attributes you want polled from AD, I only added one additional from the defaults, adminDescription. Hope this helps.
I suggest picking up the System Center 2012 \ R2 Configuration Manager unleashed book by Jason Sandy, and several other MVP's.
