At the risk of asking the obvious, have you tried guest access?
By this, I mean configuring the SMB server to allow guest access to the share(s) in question and then telling moode the Userid is "guest" (case doesn't seem to matter) with no, e.g., blank password.
As an aside, I also have tested mounting SMB shares which do not allow guest access. Works a treat for me. What trips up some here is that SAMBA maintains its own list of user passwords for security reasons. It can be configured to sync them with the system's user passwords but that is not a requirement.
My experience has been that less is more in setting up a SMB server. I usually accept the default configuration when I install the package on a Linux host and customize individual shaves only as needed. I haven't had to fiddle with protocol version settings in a long time (MS WIndows is/was usually the b*stard to deal with)..
If you look at moOde's /etc/samba/smb.conf you'll see a reasonably minimalist setup including the individual share parameters.

Here's what I get from one of my moOde players using only guest access and no advanced setting changes.

Code:
rho@sunroom:~ $ mount
...
//OMV1.local/Music1 on /mnt/NAS/OMV1-Music1 type cifs (ro,relatime,vers=3.1.1,cache=none,username=Guest,uid=0,noforceuid,gid=0,noforcegid,addr=10.0.0.45,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777,iocharset=utf8,soft,nounix,mapposix,reparse=nfs,rsize=61440,wsize=65536,bsize=1048576,retrans=1,echo_interval=60,actimeo=1,closetimeo=1)
...
It must either be something with my Samba server (most likely), or there is something else about how my local network is configured that is causing the issue.
