I tested this and you are right.  The roof doesn't curve where it meets a rounded wall.  It leaves a gap at the joint.  It happens in both build and live modes.  It seems that the roof can't curve and does the best that it can trying to follow curve by doing what it does when it meets straight walls in a polygon shape.  My guess is that the devs didn't make allowances for this when the curved walls were introduced.

 

Hope this helps.

I've got this problem too. I can see daylight through the gaps. I can't add bigger trims on the particular house I'm building right now either or it would throw the whole thing off.

I'm finding round walls are more trouble than they are worth unfortunately.
