I followed the suggestions made in this post:
gnome-control-center
sudo systemd-sysusers
I rebooted the device to restart all daemons. The gnome-remote-desktop.service came up:

The minor TPM warning seems to be inconsequential because my device doesn't have a TPM. I was able to connect to the remote desktop on port 3389.
(TL;DR Now works for me). I too encountered this issue (same error message as OP) on a Raspberry Pi 5.
