samba - Mar 2022 - Unable to write to a share that I should have access to

[Backup]
    comment = Old Media storage
    path = "/mnt/seagate/Backup"
    guest ok = no
    writeable = Yes
    create mask = 0777
    directory mask = 0777
    valid users = myusername

I am able to mount it as a user with 'gio mount smb://$FS/backup' but
when
I am in that dir, I am unable to write to it.  I can view the files but I
can't save anything new or edit and save.

Is it writeable or writable?

Right after sending I realized I may not have the samba groups as owners of
the share.

Both and also 'read only = no'
What filesystem is the seagate drive using ?
You should also be aware that Samba cannot set permissions on a
file/directory that are greater than the OS will allow.
