Thanks for the ping on this lnog standing bug @Tronde.
I updated the state accordingly.

If there is a change to be identified since Xenial->Bionic one could try to SRU fix it in Xenial.
But I took a (quick) look and found nothing obvious.
There are major changes like going from sysV init in /etc/init.d/autofs to a native systemd service in /lib/systemd/system/autofs.service.
One would need to debug if there is something that can be brought into the systemV init to fix it.

I appreciate your former steps to reproduce, but they failed for me :-/
Without having more time debugging why I can't reproduce atm I'd need to ask you (or others) to debug what the missing new bit might be to fix up xenial.

  [SRU] [xenial] autofs needs to be restarted to pick up some shares

Bug description:
  I am using autofs to access shares on a Windows XP machine from a
  Kubuntu AMD64 machine.  The problems applies in both Breezy and
  Dapper.

  EDIT:  confirmed with similar configuration on Intrepid with a NetApp
  filer hosting NFS.  Server OS removed from summary.

  When I first try to access the mount point via cd or in Konqueror it
  does not exist.  However,  if I then restart autofs
  (/etc/init.d/autofs restart) everythin then works OK.  My config files
  are:

  auto.master

  #
  # Sample auto.master file
  # This is an automounter map and it has the following format
  # key [ -mount-options-separated-by-comma ] location
  # For details of the format look at autofs(5).
  #/misc	/etc/auto.misc --timeout=60
  #/misc	/etc/auto.misc
  #/net	/etc/auto.net

  /petunia /etc/petunia.misc --timeout=60
