'Can't access OVM Samba share MacOs / iOS (Invalid argument)

I have Open Media Vault set up on Raspberry Pi. I have connected an external drive, created the required shared folders, enabled SMB/CIFS.

Everything works great on Windows machine and Android devices, however, if I try to connect to the share through MacOS or iOS (files app), I get an error:

MacOS: There was a problem connecting to the server “raspberrypi”.

iOS: The operation couldn't be completed. Invalid argument

OMV is a default latest installation, no custom configs or anything. The external drive is exFat type, it was working fine on pure Samba server before (without OMV).

Any ideas how can I fix this or at least how can I debug why I can't connect from MacOS and iOS?
