There are a bunch of folk (me included) who spend a lot of time thinking about getting UX and Agile folk to play nice together. You can find some of my rantings via lanyrd http://lanyrd.com/profile/adrianh/.
There's a stack of stuff under https://pinboard.in/u:adrianh/t:agile/t:ux that you may find interesting. Some of it may need filtering through my brain before you see the agile/ux connection though :-)
The UX track at Agile 2012 had a bunch of great sessions around getting UX and agile running well together (bias warning - I produced the track :-) http://agile2012.sched.org/overview/type/user+experience - I think all the sessions have slides now. Nag me if not.
Personally I'm finding UX works better outside of an iteration context with a more lean/kanban approach. The stuff Janice Fraser is doing at LUXr for example http://www.slideshare.net/clevergirl/. Google around the "Lean UX" topic. Ignore the folk who talk about it as if it's just about less deliverables. It's more than that.
You'll likely find Jeff Patton's work of interest - this might be a good starting point http://agileproductdesign.com/blog/emerging_best_agile_ux_pr....

There are also the sessions from Agile UX NYC earlier this year http://agileuxnyc.com/presentations/

Finally the agile usability mailing list http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/agile-usability/ is a useful place to chat about this sort of stuff.
