SharePoint not seeing AD groups
I found the solution. Our sync to Azure was not configured to sync the OU where the groups were located.
To fix, go to Azure AD Connect > Configure > Customize synchronizations options > Domain & OU filtering. Make sure the OU is selected, and save.
In the Microsoft 365 admin center home screen, in the "Search users, groups, settings or tasks" text box, when I type something, autocomplete displays users and distribution groups, but not security groups. So that seems to confirm that the security groups are not being synchronized.
In the Synchronization Service Manager, under Connectors > Properties > Select Object Types, the "group" checkbox IS checked. Where else could I look for something misconfigured?
