If I change to root and run the same command I can mount my truecrypt file and see it's contents as user root but it is not available for normal users.

Cant chmod the directory /media/tc either

Yeah, their is two methods that should work.
1. Create the /media/tc folder as owned as user, and then mount your tc folder as a sub-folder of /media/tc
2. Edit your sudoers, and add the truecrypt binary object as one that requires no password. (I probably should do this by default!)
