Thanks a lot, Pedro, didn't know that. Wish someone told me that earlier - I
nearly drove myself nuts last night reinstalling & reconfiguring the
system... (

BTW, I somehow managed to work around the problem, although I'm not sure
about the details.

I tried the following:

- removed samba cmpletely (apt-get purge)
- removed Rhythmbox the same way
- reinstalled Rhythmbox through Ubuntu Software Center

Tried Rhythmbox again - the above steps didn't help. Then I tried Rhythmbox
under another user account on my machine - it worked just fine! So I created
another admin account, logged into it, deleted mine, then removed and
reistalled samba & Rhythmbox again via apt-get using wildcads (sudo apt-get
install samba4* & rhythmbox* respectively). NOTE: I installed *samba4* this
time.

Then I re-created an account for myself and logged into it. So far
everything works, i.e. Rhythmbox (with MTP plugin active) & folder sharing.
