Cant use on prem ad accounts to login to AVD personal workstations
I have a new installation with AVD personal desktop. I am using Azure AD signin since in Azure the VM’s cant connect to a domain controller. There is no site to site VPN back to on prem.
But the tenant has everyone synched to Azure with an AADC server. I setup the AVD VM’s and selected to have them joined to Azure AD. I find that I can only use cloud only accounts to log into the VM’s, on prem accounts won’t work. Is this normal? and will on prem accounts ever work and are they supposed to work in this situation?
I am using the remote desktop app for azure virtual desktop.
I put in the AD on prem account and password and I get an error saying the password is wrong.
If I configure the AVD to use a azure ad account then I can login without an error.
Could this possibly be something wrong with the AADC server configuration?

EricFehn I am having a similar issue. We created a AVD environment that is using Azure Active Directory domain services to enable on cloud only users to Access the AVD.
It is using Domain services to Access the fslogix profile storage account.
Permissions are set correctly as they All belong to AVD users group. Which has NTFS file permissions correctly set for FSLogix.However some users were synced from Onprem to Cloud and cut. So now "cloud only" however these get failed Authentication attempts when logging into session host.
The users that are created exclusively in the Cloud work fine and login fine.
