[Samba] 4.4.14 on solaris, using ads, can't read/write as user

Thanks for your help.  Here is a sanitized config from our dev system where
I'm testing the Solaris patch.

[global]
   workgroup = MYDOM
   netbios name = norm
   security = ADS
   log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log
   max log size = 50
   dns proxy = no
   loglevel = 3
   template shell = /usr/bin/bash
   winbind use default domain = true
   winbind enum users = yes
   winbind enum groups = yes
   winbind nested groups = yes
   encrypt passwords = yes
   realm = AD.MYDOM.CA


   idmap config * : range = 16777216-33554431
   idmap config * : backend = rid


   nt acl support = no
   unix extensions = no

load printers = no
printing = bsd
printcap name = /dev/null
disable spoolss = yes


#============================ Share Definitions
==============================

[homes]
   comment = Home Directories
   path = %H
   browseable = no
   valid users = MYDOM\%U
   create mask = 0750
   directory mask = 0750
   wide links = Yes

   guest ok = no
   read only = no

[tmp]
  path = /tmp
  public = no
  browseable = no
  read only = no


As this is now, I was experimenting with not controlling the access to /tmp
New files can be copied there by the connected user, and they are showing
expected ownership.  Reading 700 files owned by the user isn't working from
smbclient nor Windows.

The version of AD is under Windows 2012R2
