Hello, I'm trying to deploy elastic agents using fleet with the certificate authorities enable in the advanced output settings, but when I go to install the agent, it still says unknown authority.  
So I enrolled the agent using the insecure flag, but I'm not receiving any data into the data streams.  
I tried using both the ca.crt and my Elasticsearch crt, but my elastic trace still fails with error.message":"javax.net.ssl.SSLHandshakeException: Received fatal alert: bad\_certificate
