API endpoint virtual IP never shows up on other master nodes when current master shuts down or reboots

Expected Behavior

When the master node with the API endpoint virtual IP shuts down or reboots another master node should take on that IP. Communications with the cluster via kubectl fails until the master node becomes available

Current Behavior

Alternate master nodes do not get assigned the API endpoint virtual IP specified in group_vars/all.yaml if the current master with that VIP shuts down or otherwise becomes unavailable

Steps to Reproduce

Set up cluster with 2+ master nodes (in my case as proxmox VMs)
Start pinging the virtual IP continuously
Shut down the node that has that VIP
ping eventually times out

Context (variables)

Operating system: Ubuntu 22.04

Hardware: Proxmox virtual machines
