Fellow consultant/buddy of mine is experiencing likewise on a RDS
server. He has a case opened up. Hang loose while I check with him
what's up.

Greetings,
We have a client organization who’s experiencing a problem none of us
have seen before.
They have a new fileserver – Windows 2012 R2 – and drives mapped via GPO.
As users are working, their mapped drives periodically disconnect –
drive icon acquires the red “X” and any database programs open
(including accounting) starts tossing out errors, forcing them to
close the databases to continue.
Most of the time, if they just open the mapped drive, Windows
reconnects and they can re-open what they were working on.
Occasionally, they instead get the error indicating that the device is
in use. Very similar to the old issue documented in
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/297684
This wasn’t happening on their old server – a Windows SBS 2008 system.
It’s not been a smooth migration – we’re still pulling services off of
the old system and trying to get it decommissioned without taking them
down. It also isn’t happening on any other network we’re aware of –
not ours, nor any other clients with similar combinations of systems.
We’ve implemented the “autodisconnect” setting, but it isn’t resolving
the problem. Wondering if anyone here is encountered something similar?
