I believe this bug is due to the fact that gvfs does not do any authentication for browsing a computer's shares (the smb-browse backend) whereas it does do authentication for connecting to a share (the smb backend).
I've produced a fairly hacky patch that grafts authentication into the smb-browse backend. It works for me.
