AccountPolicy: Current Configuration Does Not Exist

[sytmd]

Details of the scenario you tried and the problem that is occurring

I'm attempting to test an AccountPolicy resource ahead of a deployment to Azure VM using Automanage Machine Configration.
When I test locally with Get-GuestConfigurationPackageComplianceStatus I get the following error:

Write-Error: Job 282f4638-4d1f-41f4-97a0-54415c840d9a : MIResult: 6 Error Message: Current configuration does not exist. Execute Start-DscConfiguration command with -Path parameter to specify a configuration file and create a current
configuration first. Message ID: MI RESULT 6 Error Category: 13 Error Code: 6 Error Type: MI

Running the suggested Start-DscConfiguration with the path to the MOF extracted from the guest configuration .zip provides no output. Running Get-DscConfiguration afterwards returns a similar error to above.

Configurations using AuditPolicyDsc or PsDscResources are okay. This error also pops up when a xPsDesiredStateConfiguration resource is used.
