Could you eloborate on that? The ACLs allow my admin user read and write 
access, the same admin user defined by "ldap admin dn" in smb.conf

I'm wondering if the problem could be of timing, that first PAM changes 
the password in LDAP and then samba tries to do the same, but with the 
old password, like suggested here:
