OK, then I need a log file with debugging turned on, it can be enabled from settings > system > logging, and also enable component specific logging for the "SMB library", "ffmpeg" and "audio".
A log from the RPi that works as well as one that does not could help, both attempting to play the same music file. Keep the logs small by just playing a single song.

Unfortunately that didn't tell me as much as I hoped, but let's see if we can deduce anything.
I note that
host "LibreELEC05" has LibreELEC 9.2.4 (Kodi 18.8) and plays the song
host "LibreELEC04" has LibreELEC 9.2.6 (Kodi 18.9) gives error Read - Error( -1, 103, Software caused connection abort )
A read error is occuring, but both run the same version of ffmpeg, so it can't be that.
I don't think there are any Samba changes in Kodi 18.8 to 18.9, but it is possible that LibreElec has an OS level change, or I guess it could relate to variations in how the Samba drive is mounted on the different devices.
Does host "LibreELEC04" have problems playing all files on that smb drive or just some of them?
If you install LibreELEC 9.2.4 on that device does the problem go away?

Yes, the behaviour is crazy.
It is probably worth providing a debug log with "SMB library", "ffmpeg" and "audio" components enabled, of FLAC failing to play on your "LibreELEC04" device with LE 9.2.4 so I can make a straight comparison with that for "LibreELEC05"

I deactivated the skin helper addon, but no change. Flac is still played on LibreELEC05. At least, this is what we expected.
I also understand what you mean with the SD-Card issue, but I didn't use another one yet. Instead I tested the behaviour on Kodi installed on my Android phone and on my Linux Mint Laptop. On both the same result, they don't play the flac-files. So it seems not belonging to a corrupted SD-Card. I tested then the access on Linux Mint independent from Kodi. What shall I say, flac is working. No idea how that is possible.
I partly copied settings in the advancedsettings.xml from one system to the others. Can it be, that there is a failure in it?

Not sure, but I think we've had something similar before, as the above seems to have triggered a vague recollection of a plackback issue solved by removing something in advancedsettings.xml
