AWX 24.6.1 Ldap Authentication Issues

We are using AD for our LDAP configuration. Communication between AWX and AD seems to work as expected. AWX-Web pod logs show successful authentication, but the user gets a timeout error in the UI. This issue occurs several times a day and “resolves” itself after a few minutes. I cannot provide steps to reproduce since this does not happen consistently.

here are the log messages for a user that attempted to login
