1 gig trunk works, 10 gig trunk does not

I have the following setup:

vyos router with 10-gig port
cisco 2960 - 24 gig - 2 10-gig
proxmox server - 4 gig - 2 10-gig

I created a trunk on the proxmox server on one of the gig-e interfaces and traffic happily passes from the internet through the vyos router, through the switch, to proxmox and to the vm.

I then created a trunk on the proxmox server on one of the 10-gig ports and connected it to the other 10-gig ports on the cisco switch, but it doesn't work.

I have the gig port and the 10 gig port on the cisco configured identically - same with the proxmox server.

Seems like it should just work but it doesn't. Any ideas where to look?

The configs:

proxmox:
