windows - Powershell: Passing Credentials in a PSSession to a machine returns Incorrect network password

Question

Just some notes:

• The issue that is being faced does not happen on every machine, only 1 in 20
• I know it is not a powershell issue, but need to know from a health perspective what could cause this
• The machine allows a connection with an Admin account over the PS Port, but after that the machine does not see the rights of the account
• If I pass the Credentials using a Get-Credential rather than a PS Credential Object, it works however this is not an acceptable solution as the script it being wrapped in an MSO Runbook

Code being used for Credentials:

$Username = "domainnameuserid"  
$Password = "P@s4w0rd1!" | ConvertTo-SecureString -AsPlainText -Force  
$mycreds = New-Object -TypeName System.Management.Automation.PSCredential -ArgumentList $Username, $Password

Code for the PSSession:

$Session1 = New-PSSession -ComputerName WorkstationNAme #Connects to the computer
Invoke-Command -Session $Session1 -ScriptBlock {
$FreeDrive = (68..90 | %{$L=[char]$_; if ((gdr).Name -notContains $L) {$L}})[0] #Grabs the first available Drive Letter
$execDriveLocation = New-PSDrive -Name $FreeDrive -PSProvider FileSystem -Root $Using:Variable1 -Credential $using:mycreds -Persist #Creates temporary mapped drive
}

Error Returned on the affected machines:

The specified network password is not correct
    + CategoryInfo          : InvalidOperation: (D:PSDriveInfo) [New-PSDrive], Win32Exception
    + FullyQualifiedErrorId : CouldNotMapNetworkDrive,Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.NewPSDriveCommand
    + PSComputerName        : computername

Any thoughts or suggestions?
