Official Samba HowTo suggests that you would need a WINS server on each
subnet

http://samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/NetworkBrowsing.html#id2588936

You might want to review the documentation - there is a possibility
that 
'remote browse sync = broadcast_address_of_remote_subnet'
might work for you.
