Please understand that if the user is an admin, it will be with the highest permissions. Also if logging in via PKI instead of password you will have a slightly different security token. Is this a an Active Directory joined machine?

Please test/demonstrate the following:
Run CMD.exe
dir \\virtual\box\share\folder\
Run CMD as admin
dir \\virtual\box\share\folder\
Run cygterm
ls //virtual/box/share/folder/
Run cygterm as admin
ls //virtual/box/share/folder/
create local user, not in the Administrators group (regular user)
ssh in "your normal way"
id -G
# does it have 544 listed?
ssh in using password
ls //virtual/box/share/folder/

If it is like VMWare, then it is a windows file share provided by a special device driver.
If not, it ***MAY*** require some agent to run at user log on.
