It's likely that this security policy is impacting things between the
AngularJS application (running in the web browser) and the web server.  I
would expect if you open the Developer Console for whatever browser you're
using that you'll see some error message or another.  I'm not familiar
enough with the Content-Security-Policy header to know what each of those
items do, but, if that header applies a policy to the browser then it's
likely that setting everything to self is disabling some of the
conversation between the JavaScript application in the browser and the
Nginx server, causing things to fail.  I'd have to do some more testing to
validate, but that's just by guess.
