I can save to the desktop and then copy and paste to the NAS using dolphin

If I try to open a file using the file manager in OpenOffice I get a message
that says "You can only select local files"

Same thing seems to be happening if I create a new file on OpenOffice and
then try to save to the NAS - this isn't what was happening previously ....
