OK, I got the picture.
I hesitate to point this out to you, but smb.conf(5) contains:
      fam change notify (G)
         This parameter specifies whether Samba should  ask  the  FAM
daemon
         change  notifications in directories so that SMB clients can
refresh
         whenever the data on the server changes.

         This parameter is only used when your system supports change
notifiā€
         cation  to user programs, using the FAM daemon. If the FAM daemon
is
         not running, this parameter is automatically  disabled.  The
kernel
         change  notify parameter will take precedence if it is also
enabled.

         Default: fam change notify = yes

What does your smb.conf has to say about this parameter?

Another option is to try to trace calls to FAM using ltrace.
