I notice that JD is saving everything as root, which means I can't delete the files from over my SMB share unless I SSH in and update the permissions first... would be nice if I could get downloads to save with wide open permissions up front.
JDownloader saves files as the user it's running as.
That means if you started the shell script or the xvfb command from a root shell the files will be saved as root either.
You can try to run it as a different user (if you want to use your SMB users, you might need to assign a shell to these users first).
Not sure if that'll work though, it's been quite a while since I last experimented with X11 forwarding.
