Do you see the snapshots (via ssh) when you enter
# btrfs subvolume list /data
(use your actual volume name instead of /data if you are using flexraid)
If you can see them, then you could try manually deleting them with
# btrfs subvolume delete /path
using the full path of the snapshot (something like /data/sharename/.snapshots/xx/snapshot). Make sure you include the volume name - the btrfs list command doesn't include it.
If the deletion works, you likely will need to do a balance (and maybe a scrub after that) to reclaim the space.
this is what i get when i attempt that command
Using username "root".
