The problem was more with sssd than gnome.
Not sure of the exact source of the problem with SSSD, but applying the following worked as a workaround :
- Run `sudo systemctl edit sssd.service` and add the following: [Service] RuntimeMaxSec=1800 Restart=on-failure
- Restart SSSD: $ sudo systemctl restart sssd.service
This will restart sssd.service every 30 minutes unless you manually stop it, in which case it'll stay stopped until you manually start it again.
