You've got the 'Bind interfaces only' option turned on in Samba haven't
you? Turn it off and your problem will disappear.

As to what other programs care about interfaces appearing/disappearing,
run 'netstat -ltup' to see who's listening where. Anything listening on
'*:portnumber' probably doesn't care.
