I've been using this type of configuration for most of the last year without a problem (see my original question here: https://moodeaudio.org/forum/showthread....2#pid47122).
The one problem currently is that before updating I have to revert to the old playlist directory, otherwise the update fails with an error. Thus I haven't deleted the old directory but simply moved it to playlists.org before creating the symlink. Now whenever I want to update I move the symlink out of the way and the old directory into its original place, do the update and then move them back.
The only caveat is that with multiple devices you need to mount the NAS to the exact same paths for the playlists to be correct on all devices.
And naturally the playlists are only available when the NAS is reachable...
