About the posted error, "Sign in failed. Please check your username and password and try again", double-check your role assignments. If your session hosts' virtual machine(s) is "Microsoft Entra ID joined", ensure that you have assigned the following two roles at the Resource Group level:
1. "Virtual Machine User Login" - assign this to the AVD users (or Users' group)
2. "Virtual Machine Administrator Login" - assign this to the AVD admins (or Admins' group)
Also, ensure your desktop application group is associated with the two personas (users & admins groups).
Something I noticed is that MFA conditional access (CA) policy does not affect the AVD sign-in. At least in my case.
