I've seen this before, and it had me stumped for quite a long time. I've
noticed that Samba doesn't parse directory contents very well when strange
characters are contained in a filename, such as tab, filenames starting with
a space, etc... Check the directory for any such files and rename them to a
normal name. That should fix the browse view.
