This is an interesting problem. A few questions:

1. Is there any chance that one of your applications does a chown on the 
root?

2. Do you notice any logs related to metadata self-heal on '/' in the 
gluster logs?

3. Does the ownership of all bricks reset to custom uid/gid after every 
restart of the volume?

Thanks,
Vijay
