UAC issue - Remote Desktop Windows 11

I'm setting up some Windows 11 PC's and have run into an issue with UAC and Remote Desktop. When logged in locally as a Standard User the regular UAC prompt comes up allowing an Administrator approval. When logged in via Remote Desktop the UAC pop-up does not allow Administrator credentials to be entered. I've edited group policy to disable switching to the secure desktop when asking for elevations, but that did not make a difference. I really need to get this issue resolved. Can anybody help? (Just using the UAC settings windows as an example for the issue) Thanks
