That issue really could be anything, it could be something you did like putting some credentials in X-specific config files, or it could be SMPlayer looking for some X configuration that isn't there...

As I mentioned, I did reconnect to the share while in Wayland, and I did it as I have in Xorg, using the file explorer. So if that's the issue, it's the file explorer and not SMPlayer. Though SMPlayer logs did mention Wayland and authentication error on the same line... so clearly SMPlayer is doing something different in Wayland.

But sure, it could be anything. All I know is if I select Xorg on the login screen things just work, and when I select Wayland things don't.

To make any further investigation, you would have to share the error message.
