Sorry I forgot to post the resolution to this problem. It was a licencing issue. The "local" sql server was configured for unlimited connections, the remote one was configured for 5 connections.
Although "maintain database connection" is enabled, if 10 requests run queries at the same time, it tunnels 10 connections through that one connection. And thus, 10 licenses are required.
