[Samba] Redirected Folders not working for Desktop

I have a problem I've not been able to figure out.  I'm using Samba4 as
the
office AD/DC.  I've set up the Redirected Folders policy to redirect
Desktop,
Favorites and Documents to \\mail.hprs.local.  I set this up months ago and it
works great for Documents and Favorites, but Desktop is not redirected (no
Desktop):

$ ls -l /redirectedFolders/Users/thisuser/
total 16
drwxrwx---+ 10 thisuser users 4096 2015-08-25 13:08 Favorites/
drwxrwx---+ 19 thisuser users 4096 2015-08-26 14:28 My\ Documents/

Policy settings using RSAT for these 3 entities are exactly the same:
"Basic -
Redirect everyone's folder the the same location"; settings: "Move
the contents
of Desktop to the new location", Also apply redirect policy to ...  Windows
XP
..."; "Redirect the folder back to the local userprofile location when
policy is
removed". 

Here's a link to the RSAT/GPO screenshot:

What am I doing wrong?

this looks normal to me. 

Did you enable to policy to not check for owner of the folders? 
and can you show me the smb.conf share setting of this share.

    I typically setup redirected folders as such

\\mail.hprs.local\Users\%username%

I would look at the windows event viewer logs and see what it says when
it attempts to apply the GPO.

Not sure I understand, where would I look for this? I don't believe I
configured
the desktop any differently than I did for Favorites or Documents.

This share, only:

[Users]
    path = /redirectedFolders/Users
    comment = user folders for redirection
    read only = No

[Samba] Redirected Folders not working for Desktop

Well, I've just added another directory to not make the redirected folders a
the
root. And, Favorites and Documents do work.

Goog suggestion to check the Windows event viewer. I'll do that and get back
with what I find.

Thanks, --Mark
