Issue with getting to HTTP/3 or QUIC on first connect

I’m having an issue where I (think I) have enabled HTTP3 correctly on my nginx server. When I connect to the server the first time, it indicates HTTP/2 in the logs. If I hit refresh it indicates HTTP/3 from then on. So something is wrong with the configuration of the server to offer headers to negotiate it. I’ve even added HTTPS DNS records to indicate the preferred connection schemes. Bonus points if you can help me get QUIC working too.
The result of http3check.net <http://http3check.net/> is "HTTP/3 Check could not get the server's advertised QUIC versions due to the error given below.
Bad status code from server.
Thanks in advance for any pointers
