I can confirm that ADBA works great also in junction with VAMT3 from the Windows 11 ADK.
One-time caveat with the DB though:

p.s. mind that my report is about ADBA with Windows Server 2022 KMS key and Windows Server, while some here reported issues with LTSC clients. I cannot tell much whether LTSC clients issues would be solved with that switch to ADBA.
