Azure certificate in Key Vault not valid for app service

The script below will generate a self-signed certificate, create a password secured pfx and add the certificate to the key vault. When I run the ARM template after the script, it fails with the error below. However, when I manually upload the pfx in the UI (Azure portal) and enter the correct password, the ARM template will get successfully deployed. Any ideas how to get this working?

PowerShell code (when uploading the generated pfx in the portal, no error is thrown):

# Generate the certificate in the local store
$cert = New-SelfSignedCertificate -CertStoreLocation "cert:\CurrentUser\My" -Subject "CN=$certificateName" -KeyExportPolicy Exportable

# Get the raw value of the certificate
$keyValue = [System.Convert]::ToBase64String($cert.GetRawCertData())

Export-PfxCertificate -Cert $cert -Password $certPasswordSecure -FilePath "d:/temp/SelfSigned.pfx"

$secret = ConvertTo-SecureString -String $keyValue -AsPlainText –Force 
$secretContentType = 'application/x-pkcs12' 

Set-AzureKeyVaultSecret -VaultName $keyVaultName -Name $keyVaultSecretNameCertificate -SecretValue $keyValue -ContentType $secretContentType

The error:

New-AzureRmResourceGroupDeployment : 21:22:36 - Resource Microsoft.Web/certificates 'testCertificate' failed with message '{

Maybe you're missing the certificate policy on upload? But really if you're generating new certs then why bother generating certificate locally, just generate it in the key vault itself.

$credential = Get-Credential

login-azurermaccount -Credential $credential
$vaultName = 'my-vault-full-of-keys'
$certificateName = 'my-new-cert'
$policy = New-AzureKeyVaultCertificatePolicy -SubjectName "CN=mememe.me" -IssuerName Self -ValidityInMonths 120
Add-AzureKeyVaultCertificate -VaultName $vaultName -Name $certificateName -CertificatePolicy $policy
