I often remote into my office box from my home PC and JAWS for the most
part works well.
One thing I will suggest you try, if you have not already...
After you log into the remote box, and JAWS comes up talking, shut JAWS
down.
Then restart it from the Run dialog (Windows Key + R, type JAWS11 and
press enter).
Of course this will be without verbal feedback.

I absolutely always have to do this on my first remote connection to the
box.  Otherwise, JAWS behaves in a less than desirable way for me.  But
it seems others don't have to do this.

HTH.
