--- Comment #10 from Nate Graham <pointedstick at zoho.com> ---
Duplicate of Bug 355328. In essence, the problem is that KIO doesn't actually
mount Samba shares anywhere like GNOME's GVFS does (maybe XFCE has some
equivalent or uses the same thing?). As a result, all applications that wish to
access files on password-protected Samba shares must use KIO. With
non-KIO-aware software, KIO falls back to passing them a URL that doesn't
include a password in it, and thus the program itself must implement a samba
client for access and look up the missing credentials in KWallet.

I am in the process of helping the VLC folks implement this. See:
