Just like myself.

This seems to have something to do with your network interfaces.

try commenting out:

      bind interfaces only = yes
      interfaces = lo eth0

This is the main difference between your smb.conf and mine and I can 
confirm adding them to my Rpi, killed smbd.

Next question is why ???????
