Actually if anyone here that can replicate the issue has root access that'd be great. If you can increase the logging for samba and try connecting to the share, then send me the resulting logs that might be helpful here.
You can either increase the log level in /etc/samba/smb.conf (log level = 0 auth:2 should be the line), or send the smbd process a kill -SIGUSR1 to increase verbosity by one level (SIGUSR2 to decrease a level).
Log level 2 should give me enough information here, so either edit the config and reload samba/restart the NAS or send it the SIGUSR1 signal twice, make the connection and grab the log (/var/log/samba/log.smbd). Make sure to revert the changes afterwards else you run the risk of filling up the OS partition with logging.
Another thing that might be helpful here is a packet capture while trying the connection as well (with Wireshark or something of the sort).
