Well, that's conclusive.

With the correct case? 

If you are using the (case-sensitive) correct user, then I suggest
seeing what happens if you add your test user with smbpasswd:

sudo smbpasswd -L -U my.user

I seem to remember having to do that at one point. Something to do with
the way passwords are encrypted in /etc/shadow.

If that lets your test user log in, then add the other users as well. I
think they will then be kept synched through e.g. password changes.
