Can't Update Album Art

I've got Subsonic running on an Ubuntu 14.04 server, accessing music files on another Ubunto server over a Samba share mounted in fstab. With Subsonic running under it's own system account (not root), everything works fine until I try to update album art, at which point I get this:
java.io.FileNotFoundException: /mnt/path/to/music/cover.jpg (Permission denied)
What's strange is that, when I look at the folder, "/mnt/path/to/music/cover.jpg" actually *did* upload. I just can't see it. And it's a zero byte file.
Running Subsonic as the root account, I don't get this error. SU'd as the "subsonic" account, I have full rw access to this folder.
Any ideas?

One other thing I noticed was that the 0 byte files are owned by "nobody". I thought that might be related to the accout I've got assigned to the share, but I changed that to "subsonic" and tried again. The time updated, but not the owner.
Does anyone have this working as anyone other than root?

Have you tried making the user running subsonic the owner for the directory using chown?

I have. The zero-byte file it's creating on the attempt is owned by user "nobody". Maybe if I knew where that was coming from, I'd have this licked.
Edit: Okay - I've got the downloaded zero-byte file belonging to user "subsonic" now. But it's still zero-byte. Maybe it's because it's not the same "subsonic" account. Do I need an LDAP server to make this work?

Take a look in your log file and see what errors are hitting. Might be some clues in the log.

Two erros (followed by massive stack traces):
javax.imageio.IIOException: Incompatible color conversion
>> I suspect this is not the problem.
java.io.FileNotFoundException: /mnt/music/Rotation/Cat2/blah/blah - blah/cover.jpg (Permission denied)
>> I suspect this IS the problem.
So, back to the architecture:
Subsonic is on "server a", a linux server.
Music files are on a share, on "server b", another linux server.
Subsonic is running under a "subsonic" local account. The files on server b belong to another local account called "subsonic". The guest account for the SAMBA share is "subsonic". The share is set to "writable".
Am I missing anything obvious?
