gray screen presented upon rdp connection

[bublyapplejuice2]

When logging into a VM or a bare metal device running 24.04 over RDP Remote Login (new feature for gnome-remote-desktop 46), a gray screen is presented to the user. The time is written at the top, and there is the top bar controls for power off/restart etc, but no desktop icons are visible.
