After further searching, I found [this answer](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/docker-kibana-plugin-installation-with-external-dependencies-error/200451/4) to another question, which recommended increasing container memory.

Initially I tested increased memory limits for Kibana when I started troubleshooting this issue. However, I only increased `resources.limits.memory`, not `resources.requests.memory`. Once I increased both, Kibana started up as expected. See the following settings:

```bash
resources:
  requests:
    cpu: "100m"
    memory: "1Gi"
  limits:
    cpu: "1000m"
    memory: "4Gi"

```

I suspect I may have increased the `resources.limits.memory` by more than needed, but I'll continue adjusting it to see where it needs to be.
