Elastic 6.3 problems with SSL Kibana connection

I am having difficulty with Kibana 6.3.0 connecting to Elasticsearch 6.3.0 via SSL.

Setup is a single Elastic node in a dev environment with security enabled. Kibana is able to connect to the ELS node and get license information.

Kibana SSL config:

elasticsearch.url: "https://<hostname>:9200"

elasticsearch.username: "kibana"
elasticsearch.password: <password>

server.ssl.enabled: true
server.ssl.certificate: /etc/kibana/<filename>.cer
server.ssl.key: /etc/kibana/<filename>.key

elasticsearch.ssl.certificate: /etc/kibana/elastic.cer
elasticsearch.ssl.key: /etc/kibana/elastic.key

The elastic.key and elastic.cer files are PEM encoded files that correspond to the pkcs12 files used in elasticsearch as config'd below. The PEM ended files were generated using open ssl to convert pkcs12 to pem.

Elasticsearch SSL config:

xpack.security.enabled: true
xpack.security.transport.ssl.enabled: true
xpack.security.transport.ssl.verification_mode: certificate
xpack.security.transport.ssl.keystore.path: /etc/elasticsearch/certs/elastic.p12
xpack.security.transport.ssl.truststore.path: /etc/elasticsearch/certs/elastic.p12

xpack.security.http.ssl.enabled: true
xpack.security.http.ssl.key: /etc/elasticsearch/certs/<filename>.key
xpack.security.http.ssl.certificate: /etc/elasticsearch/certs/<filename>.cer

xpack:
  security:
   authc:
  realms:
    active_directory:
      type: active_directory
      order: 0
      domain_name: <domain.name>
      url: ldaps://<hostname>:636 
      ssl:
        certificate_authorities: ["< ca.cer>"]
        verification_mode: certificate
      user_search.base_dn: OU=Users,OU=<OU>,DC=<DC>,DC=com
      group_search.base_dn: OU=Roles,OU=<OU>,OU=Groups,OU=<OU>,DC=<DC>,DC=com
      load_balance:
        type: round_robin

I'll post the logs in a reply to stay within post length limit.
