    Okay so two things led me to resolving this issue:

     

    First, i had to specify the server name on 2 GP settings:

     

    Administrative Templates/Microsoft Edge/HTTP authentication/Specifies a list of servers that Microsoft Edge can delegate user credentials to

    Administrative Templates/Microsoft Edge/HTTP authentication/Configure list of allowed authentication servers

     

    This then got credentials passing through.

     

    What muddied the waters on this one was that first credential pass through wasn't working, but also there was a delay of a few minutes from first run and the websites in question being opened in IE mode. I imagine a page running in IE mode doesn't take note of the edge settings about passing credentials and was just passing the credentials through as it normally worked in IE. This gave the impression that it was a first run issue.

     

    Hope this helps someone dealing with similar issues!
