I've found a rather annoying bug involving nautilus and gnomevfs when used with SMB shares. I my had my remote mp3 and home shares mounted simultaneously on my desktop. When I unmounted my home share by right clicking on the icon the share was unmounted but I also lost access to mp3 share. The song playing in rhythmbox (located on the share) stop playing and I could no longer browse the directory from my desktop. I brought up the nautilus browser and tried to browse the host (smb://straycat) but no shares will list. I ran ethereal and I see that while attempting to browse my mp3 share no network traffic is generated between my machine and my server. I end up having to fix this by sending a SIGHUP to nautilus to regain functionality. On another note, gnomevfs has some problems getting my workgroup right when I connect to a share. It's using the default of WORKGROUP. I had to set it manually through the gconf key /system/smb/workgroup to get it correct. From looking at recent release notes (2.8.1) it should be picking up the workgroup name from my system's smb.conf but it does not appear to be. Thanks.
