if you mount a samba share in the Linux Mint Cinnamon file explorer it is just good to use it from there. Accessing files from the mounted share from "external" apps is a pita (shares are mounted to some obscure path(permission issues), the apps filepickers never have the information that a share was mounted, etc.).
If you want usesful access to a samba share you have to mount it via terminal; This way at least the path to the share is short.

You have to use the standard mount program or fuse. 0: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GVfs https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GVfs 1: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KIO https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KIO
