How do I disable Samba addon's Master Browser? My network already has one

I’m currently running Home Assistant in a Ubuntu VM (Home Assistant Core + Supervisor).

Ever since I added the Samba Addon. It decided to force itself as the Master Browser of my network; even though my router is already the Master Browser. So, currently I have two Master Browsers on my network, I would like to only use the one on my router.

I am getting messages in the Samba log like this:

Won election for workgroup MKANET on subnet 172.30.32.1

Also, I am not sure which interface the Samba addon should bind to. Currently, it’s just a blank entry (see below). Maybe, that’s the problem? All the devices on my network are on a 192.168.1.x subnet.

Currently, my addon configuration has an empty entry for interface: (see below Samba config):

workgroup: MKANET
username: myusername
password: 'mypassword'
interface: ''
allow_hosts:
  - 10.0.0.0/8
  - 172.16.0.0/12
  - 192.168.0.0/16
  - 'fe80::/10'
veto_files:
  - ._*
  - .DS_Store
  - Thumbs.db
  - icon?
  - .Trashes
compatibility_mode: false
