Where in the data flow is the username/password validated, that might
generate the 401 response that you see?

Should it happen in part of the nginx config that you have not shown; or
should it happen in the proxy_pass'ed request that you do not see happen?

In general, for a browser doing normal web browsing, 401 followed by
200 is normal and expected. In your specific case, it may not be; and
the fact that it only-and-reliably happens when the client uses IPv6 not
IPv4 does seem odd. I think you indicated that the only mentions of a
401 response in your nginx logs are when the client has connected from
an IPv6 address.

Good luck with it,
