There is a relevant description of why this happens at http://www.jejik.com/articles/2007/07/automatically_mounting_and_unmounting_samba_windows_shares_with_cifs/

Problem seems to be that cifsd is killed before the unmounting takes place.

There is a relevant shutdown script at http://www.jejik.com/files/examples/umountcifs

the thing is, this not a bug in SMB itself, in stead it relates to the shutdown procedure of ubuntu which collides with the decision to mount cifs shares using a daemon.

attached solution works.
