I figured it out. When ovirt-provider-ovn attempts to connect back to the engine via HTTPS, it tells the python requests module to use the specified CA cert file... but that won't work with most 3rd-party certs because they have an intermediate cert as well. It appears that the requests module tries to validate both certs.
Creating /etc/ovirt-provider-ovn/conf.d/99-custom-cert.conf that just has: [OVIRT] ovirt-ca-file= tells the module to use the regular system CA cert file(s), which works. This should probably be added to the oVirt doc for using a 3rd-party cert.
