The tests i made were accessing a folder where only Domain Users
have access, but the user is not a member of Domain Users. I
don't know if the assumed primary group will be used for the
group ownership. You could verify if the same problem is hit by
setting the log level to 10 and then watch for a log message like
this one:

 passdb/lookup_sid.c:1759(get_primary_group_sid)
   Forcing Primary Group to 'Domain Users' for VIRTUAL1\testuser1
