On the console and in a KDE session for a freshly created user, the NFS 
is automatically unmounted when the timeout expires. In my usual KDE 
session, if I kill plasma-desktop, the timeout works, too. Restarting 
plasma-desktop causes the share to be automounted again, ie, without any 
explicit access to it.

Here's what the pstree output for plasma-desktop looks like:

plasma-desktop
  ├─ksysguardd
  ├─{KCupsConnection}
  ├─{QInotifyFileSys}
  ├─{QProcessManager}
  └─{plasma-desktop}

I've also tried strace'ing plasma-desktop (with -e trace=open and with 
grepping for relevant paths), but didn't see any accesses to the share 
there.

As I wrote in another reply, I was hoping to get some insight from 
autofs. Presumably it needs to know about which accesses and processes 
keep a mounted share from timing out. Unfortunately, even at debug 
level, no such information is in the log.
