Fabric Icons not Loading in Desktop Outlook

Question

I've built a few Outlook Add-ins now, but I have one user that is having a problem with Fabric Icons (I've also tried Google Material Icons with no luck). For that user, everything works great on OWA using IE11. But in the Outlook Desktop Client the icons are not loading. I thought the Outlook Add-in used the IE browser, so if it works in IE, it should work in the Outlook Desktop.

I know probably I should be using vorlorn.js but I haven't set it up yet (I was pulling my hair out earlier getting it to work in my local sandbox, due to Add-ins requiring HTTPS, and Vorlon not easily supporting HTTPS)

I haven't tried this yet, but if it's working in IE11 it should work on the Desktop right? Icon fonts not loading in IE11

Would you be able to share a code sample with more context of the issue and include a screenshot? — Outlook Add-ins Team - MSFT, Aug 02 '17 at 20:37
I'll post as soon as we go public. Right now, it's just one user out of our beta population. — Nick Caruso, Aug 08 '17 at 20:43

Self hosting (Google Material Icons) caused the same issue for me, but using the CDN gets the icons to work.

<link href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/icon?family=Material+Icons" rel="stylesheet">

Not ideal for my use case, but it works.
