You may have multiple things to solve here.
Your line
location \.(txt|css) {
looks like a regex, but you're not telling nginx it /is/ a regex. I
wouldn't expect anything to work until you fix that.
Secondly, the inheritance behaviours you're seeing are as I'd expect:
1) I don't believe proxy_pass statements are inherited, both as you're
seeing from outer-location{} to inner-location{} but also from, for
example, server{} to location{}. You need to define each proxy_pass
where you want it to be used.
2) add_header (again, in my understanding) is a slightly different
beast: it *is* inherited, outer to inner, but only if you *don't*
re-use it in the inner location. As soon as you use it inside the
inner location, all the inherited add_header directives are forgotten.
Again - that's what I /think/ is the case - I welcome others to
correct me if I'm misremembering ...
Cheers,
Jonathan
