OK, I figured out what I did wrong. I changed the path to UNC in MiP,
to match LMS, using the MiP GUI. (Actually, I don't see how you can set
the path using MiP Headless.) But I'm using MiP Headless to communicate
with LMS, and I did not reload the database cache in MiP Headless after
changing the path using the GUI. Once I did that, it all works using UNC
names.

So the "lesson learned" for me on this one is: (1) you can use either
UNC names or drive letter paths to point to your music collection, but
they have to be the SAME in LMS and MiP; and (2) the coordination has
to be between LMC and whichever version of MiP you're using, GUI or
Headless, so if you've used the GUI to set the path but are using
Headless to talk to LMS, hit the "Reload Cache" button in Headless!
