How long is this delay?

I noticed that "security = server, password server = PDC" results in
a connection delay of about 1 sec.  However, adding Samba to the NT
domain and setting "security = domain, password server = *" results
in no perceptible connection delay.

OTOH, I also run an internal nameserver, so your hypothesis might 
still be correct.

Later,
