This bug is related to bug # 1430531 however this only occurs when Libre Office is on OS with LxQt desktop.

I am running Lubuntu version 20.04 with all updates installed
The Libre Office version :
Version: 6.4.2.2
Build ID: 1:6.4.2-0ubuntu3
CPU threads: 4; OS: Linux 5.4; UI render: default; VCL: qt5;
Locale: en-GB (en_GB.UTF-8); UI-Language: en-US
Calc: threaded

1. connect to share on local network with PCManFM-Qt File Manager
2. click on file TEST_Samba.odt
3. The Libre Office splash/Logo screen appears for a split second and the nothing happens and the file is not opened.
4. I then right-click on file and select "open with Libre Office Writer
5. Document in Use" window appears with text:

   Document file 'TEST_Samba.odt' is locked for editing by:

   Unknown User

   Open document read-only or open a copy of the document for editing.

   Open Read-Only Open Copy Cancel

Screen shot attached..

Expected results:
   The "TEST_Samba.odt" files is opened in read-write mode, user can edit it.

Actual results:
   User can't edit original document (see 3-5 above)

I have tested this on several boxes running Lubuntu 20.04 with the exact same results.
I have also tested this on SparkyLinux LxQT version 5.11 with the same results.
Ubuntu Gnome as well as MS Windows/Office have no problems opening/editing and/or saving this file back to the Samba share.
Again this occurs only on machines with LXQt desktop.

Global Samba config is "default"
 Usershare config is:

$ cat /var/lib/samba/usershares/sameign2
#VERSION 2
path=/home/kbeins/Sameign2
