[Samba] Samba vscan VFS Module

I'm trying to configure Samba's vscan on-access VFS module on a box with
a working CLAM installation. [CLAM is merrily scanning mail on this box
via clamav-milter].
I've set this up before, but this time it seems to be giving me grief.
If I remove the vscan-clamav module then everything works, and I can
open files.
When I try to open a file with the module enable I just get a file not
found or permission denied message.
In the SMB log for the workstation I get:

------------------------
The seeming "file not found" problem seems baffling to me - THE FILE
EXISTS! I see it in Explorer, and I see it with ls. If I remove the
vscan-clamav module then everything works, and I can open files.
Is the clamd daemon itself attempting to open the file, as the user
"vscan", rather then opening the file in the Samba process and just
using the daemon?
[goldmine]
comment = Department Data Share
path = /srv/cifs/goldmine
valid users = @cis, at sales
admin users = @cis
force group = sales
writeable = Yes
force create mode = 0660
force directory mode = 0770
guest ok = Yes
vfs objects = vscan-clamav recycle
vscan-clamav:config-file = /etc/samba/vscan-clamav.conf
In /etc/samba/vscan-clamav.conf the clamd socket name
= /var/lib/clamav/clamd-socket and I can see the daemon listening (and
mail miltering works) -
sardine:~ # fuser -u /var/lib/clamav/clamd-socket
/var/lib/clamav/clamd-socket: 11161(vscan)
