Just tell your users not to specify a username at all (the normal case) 
in which case Windows will use its internal username which will always 
be identical.

Using SSPI for Unix *and* specifying a username is a very unusual 
configuration - and is the source of your issues.  If you're using 
domain authentication then it's always better to let the Windows handle 
it internally, and if you're specifying a username use something like 
SSH which is native to Unix rather than a Windows emulation layer.
