[Pkg-samba-maint] samba broken

Hello, I have debian testing and upgraded samba-common-bin and related packages to 2:4.16.0+dfsg-6 and now can't access my samba shares through the file manager (nautilus).  When I try to open my saved bookmark for smb://server/share I get an error:

Unhandled error message: failed to mount Windows share: Invalid argument

However, a command like:

mount -t cifs -o username=YOURUSERNAME,password=YOUPASSWORD //server_name_or_ip/folder_to_mount /mnt/folder_to_mount_to/

works ok and I can access the share.  Also smbclient can connect to the share as well.

Any ideas what happened and how I can troubleshoot it?  Is there something I need to kill and restart?

Thanks
