That would make sense -- as when you connected to the share, you authenticated as yourself. After you elevate, you're now using different credentials and the previous credentials don't apply. At this point you have to close the detach drive, then re-connect with new identity that is in effect when you've elevated (you may have to do the disconnect and reconnect because there may be restrictions on using a share to only one identity).
