Default Samba 3.6 showing root, not user

When I first started with FreeBSD I installed samba for all my windows pc's. The first time I could see in top(1) wich user is using how much CPU with samba.
After that I have not seen this behavior, I only see root, and when more than one user is using samba I see the user root several times. How can I make my samba show me in top(1) wich user is using samba and how much CPU?

All Samba processes run as root.

Strange, I have seen it one with FreeBSD 6 or so, that I could see the user. Can anyone confirm this?
