Again: gvfs-backends is installed (it was removed without my knowledge during 
the update from Ubuntu 19.10 to 20.04 beta).  Perhaps you should not install a 
beta version on a productive
system ;-)

When I want to mount the drive as in Ubuntu 19.10, I get:

$ gio mount smb://192.168.178.1/sharename
Password required for share sharename on 192.168.178.1
User [SessionUserName]: NewUserIfDifferent
Domain [WORKGROUP]: NewDomainIfDifferent
Password: PassWord

In Ubuntu 20.04 beta I still get (after manual installation of `gvfs-
backends`, which was removed during the update from 19.10 to the beta

$ gio mount smb://192.168.178.1/sharename
gio: smb://192.168.178.1/sharename/: Failed to mount Windows share: Software 
caused connection abort

So, Ubuntu 20.04 does not request to enter the user, domain/workgroup,
password at all.

Remark: I could mount the drive via "sudo mount -t cifs ..." using the
"vers=1.0" switch in all Ubuntu versions, also in 20.04 beta.

Should I open a new bug?  The error and it's error message is now
different.  That the beta installer did remove the package `gvfs-
backends`, I will not test again, because I have only productive 19.10
systems.  I had several small glitches during the installation, so also
the repositories were grilled away but one - I am doing this since 2008
at least twice a year on at least 2 laptops, mostly I start with the
beta version.
