Answering my own post with a solution, but I don't know WHY this works. I discovered that if I access fish://pi/media/PUBLIC/ in Dolphin the file ownerships are shown correctly.
Can anyone tell me why this works when the following 2 don't? > If I access /mnt/PI-PUBLIC in Dolphin, all the files "seem" to be > owned by root. > If I access smb://solomon@pi/PI-PUBLIC/ then all the files "seem" to > be owned by solomon.
