[Samba] Samba SSSD authentication via userPrincipalName does not work because samba claims that the username does not exist.

I made a step backwards and figured out that authenticating via UPN DOES
work if I use a "legal" one with an "@domain"-suffix. Sorry for that
confusion.

But: I want to use login names without the "@domain"-suffix because, as
this looks like an email address, people could get irritated as their
email address may look different.
So I set the "winbind use default domain = yes" in the smb.conf and
"wbinfo -K test-storage01" works for user UPN test-storage01 at ad.adtest.de.

But smbclient (on Debian) or net use (on Windows) does not work if I
omit the "@ad.adtest.de". Am I right when I think that missing the '@'
leads to a fallback of DOMAIN\sAMAccountName - authentication because
winbind does not know how to navigate through the AD forest?
Interestingly, test-storage01 at ad.bnitm.de could be mapped to
BNITM\test-storage01-sam and authenticate.
(smb.log: "check_ntlm_password:  authentication for user
[test-storage01 at ad.bnitm.de] -> [test-storage01 at ad.bnitm.de] ->
[BNITM\test-storage01-sam] succeeded")

Also: "getent passwd test-storage01 at ad.bnitm.de" ->
"test-storage01-sam:*:3000:3000:Test Storage
01:/home/BNITM/test-storage01-sam:/bin/false"

But "net use y: \\ip\example /user:test-storage01" leads to the
following smb.log entry:
"Auth: [SMB2,(null)] user [DESKTOP-9CASEDK]\[test-storage01] at [Thu, 15

... while "net use y: \\ip\example /user:test-storage01 at ad.adtest.de" works.

I wonder how authentication without domain suffix could work at all.
My smb.conf:

[global]
   workgroup = ADTEST
   security = ADS
   realm = AD.ADTEST.DE

   winbind refresh tickets = Yes
   vfs objects = acl_xattr
   map acl inherit = Yes
   store dos attributes = Yes

   dedicated keytab file = /etc/krb5.keytab
   kerberos method = secrets and keytab
   winbind expand groups = 4
   winbind refresh tickets = Yes
   winbind normalize names = Yes
   winbind nss info = rfc2307
   winbind use default domain = yes

   winbind enum users = yes
   winbind enum groups = yes

   idmap config * : backend = autorid
   idmap config * : range = 1000000-1999999
   idmap config * : rangesize = 1000000

   load printers = no
   printing = bsd
   printcap name = /dev/null
   disable spoolss = yes
   log level = 3
