Are the Dcs (this includes the RODC) using themselves as their
nameserver ?

Are the clients (at the RODC site) using the RODC as their nameserver ?

If everything is correct and Windows works as expected, but Samba
doesn't, then it sounds like you have found a bug, so please file a bug
report, but get as much info as possible (level 10 logs, network traces
etc.).

One last thing you could check, Samba uses the same 'priority' and
'weight' for all SRV records ('0' & '100'), what does Windows use ?
