Mixed-content block even though it is to an https URI

I getting a strange error. Edge is blocking mixed content that it thinks is from an http URI but the DevTools sources clearly shows it as requesting an https URI. Any ideas what could cause this? I've disabled caching in the network tab. The request is being reverse proxied by nginx to front end the Internet traffic with TLS but send via a VPN to a legacy server that is http. BTW - The blocked out parts all reference the same host.

Thanks,

    Hi and thanks for reaching out. My name is William. I'm a Microsoft Windows Certified Professional and Systems Administrator. I'll be happy to help you out today.

    It does not matter if the traffic originates as https. If at any point along the path an http site is loaded, you will encounter this message. Documentation regarding this can be found here: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/deployedge/edg...

    To make an exception, you go to Settings > Site Permissions > Insecure content (or edge://settings/content/insecureContent).
