kubevirt.github.io Error installing on Azure Kubernetes Service

What happened: I have followed the given installation steps in the installation guide but the pods in the 'kubevirt' namespace are stuck in "CrashLoopBack".

The installation steps are:

export VERSION=$(curl -s https://storage.googleapis.com/kubevirt-prow/release/kubevirt/kubevirt/stable.txt)
kubectl create -f "https://github.com/kubevirt/kubevirt/releases/download/${VERSION}/kubevirt-operator.yaml"
kubectl create -f "https://github.com/kubevirt/kubevirt/releases/download/${VERSION}/kubevirt-cr.yaml"

The output of the logs of the "virt-operator" pods is:

W1109 13:52:17.924128       1 client_config.go:659] Neither --kubeconfig nor --master was specified.  Using the inClusterConfig.  This might not work.

What you expected to happen: The usual deployment of Kubernetes as mentioned in the docs.

How to reproduce it (as minimally and precisely as possible):

Create a AKS cluster with Kubernetes version v1.29
Follow Kubevirt installation steps

Additional context: It works fine with self-managed Rancher k3s (Kubernetes v1.26)

Environment:

KubeVirt version (use virtctl version): v1.3.1
Kubernetes version (use kubectl version): v1.29.0
VM or VMI specifications: N/A
Cloud provider or hardware configuration: Azure (Azure Kubernetes Service)
OS (e.g. from /etc/os-release): Linux
Kernel (e.g. uname -a): N/A
Install tools: N/A
Others: N/A
