Files not visible with AFP but with CIFS

If you go to the share listing from the admin page and click on CIFS (or any other protocol), you'll an advanced option tab on the far right. This has an "Advanced Share Permission" section that lets you set the owner, group, and owner/group/guest access rights for all files in the share. Check the control next to "Set ownership and permission for existing files and folders in this share to the above settings. This option is useful in cases where you are changing security levels and need to workaround file access problems." Then press the apply button at the bottom.
The permissions are reset in the background, if you stay in frontview a dialog will popup telling you that is it done.
