You can get this to work with

compdef _precommand exec_smb_expand_args

which tells it that that's a precommand modifier and it should look
further along for the command to complete.  Then any alias using
that command will spring into life.

Unless you have a lot of these, that's probably less work than
telling it to use aliases as a basis for completion and then ensuring
you have a completion for all your aliases,  However, the option
COMPLETE_ALIASES is also available.
