autofs/smbfs - delayed mounting?

Hi

I'm using autofs to mount various smb shares from our NT server. Things
are working ok, except for this:

cola:~>d /smbfs/studio/Database/
ls: /smbfs/studio/Database/: Input/output error
cola:~>d /smbfs/studio/Database/
total 8108
drwxr-xr-x 1 urban root 512 Oct 28 10:20 ./
drwxr-xr-x 1 urban root 512 Nov 27 12:26 ../
...

cola:~>mount
...
//DAVINCI/STUDIO on /smbfs/studio type smbfs (0)

The first ls waits for something (the mounting I assume) to complete. But
for some reason the process can continue before the mount has completed.
Can anyone else see this?
bug, feature or configuration error?

Linux 2.1.129 (with UP flu fix)
glibc-2.0.7
autofs-3.1.3 (kernel part as a module)
samba-2.0.0beta2

/Urban, not sure if this should go here or to an autofs or samba list, but
at least it doesn't involve eggs :)
