OS 6.5.1 SMB Home Share bug?

Can I get some confirmation on this possible bug?
I've set up 2 slightly differnt usernames on OS 6.5.1 with the same password, when initially accessing either one of the usernames via an Andrioid Phone (using ES Explorer) I can see only the 1 usrname folder (working correctly). However after refreshing several times, relogging in several times, I can now see both usernames as folder shares? (note: I can still only access the correct username folder, so no security concerns). No other usernames show.
I've tried to replicate this on a Windows PC via LAN, but was unable to do so.
ReadyNAS: RN 316 / OS 6.5.1
Number of User Accounts: 11
Share Folders: Enabled with SMB only
Snapshot Schedule: Smart / Never
Snapshot Access: Nothing enabled
Andrioid Version 6.0.1
ES Explorer Version: 4.1.3 (Market)
The only thing I can think of is that I'm running BTSync Client 1.4.103 when the Home Folders were orignally setup and sync'ed (drwxr-xr-x 1 admin admin, which gives read only access via LAN per user). IDK how to setup individual user access for each home folder without messing up write access for BTSync...
If it was a group/user CHOWN issue, then why don't other home folders show up, only those with the same password do.....

I believe ES File Explorer is caching the directories, and when you switched users it didn't clear the cache.
I think there is a manual setting in the app to clear the cache, so try that and see if the other home folder still appears.
