Dear Matthew,
for such a small system you might consider to use a k-point mesh to
accurately sample the Brillouin zone. It is important to keep in mind,
however, that the implementation of k-point sampling is still at the
experimental stage.
As a workaround you can increase the size of your unit cell, for example
using the 2x2x2 supercell instead of the original one. This will
effectively shrink the Brillouin zone making Γ-point sampling relatively
reasonable.
All the best,
Sergey
