This problem seems to happen when the new version of the file to be saved is shorter than the older. I tried creating a space filled file, named file.odt, and then creating a new spreadsheet an saving with the same name. If file.odt is stored locally, everything goes fine, but if it is stored on a samba share, the result is a file containing a blank spreadsheet with trailing spaces until the length of the dummy space filled old file. That is, saving over an existing file on a samba share overwrites the older, but doesn't arrange the length of the file.
