As much as I hope it's the smell of Dino death, I'm not going to hold my breath... Not after reading what so many have gone through.
Currently going with a clean approach (which I now understand isn't very successful). When this fails me, I'll be getting dirty with these suckers.

Smell is kind of underrated in reefkeeping.
It doesn't get mentioned anywhere, but dinos *do* smell weird. I can smell them when I have the top off my aquarium.
Macroalgae smells weird too. And when the LFS is fragging softies it reeks.
Clean method has worked for a couple of people! They go for removing sandbeds, adding UV, ozone. Don't jinx yourself, you may not have to.
