Try changing:
daemon smbd $SMBDOPTIONS
to
  strace -f smbd $SMBDOPTIONS
and run it in the way that fails.  If there's not enough left on the 
screen to see why it died, try
  strace -f smbd $SMBOPTION 2>/tmp/smblog
and look at the file reading backwards to find a fatal error.

I'm still very curious about why it would work when run with 'sh'.
