So I was pulled onto a different project for a couple of weeks and I finally got a chance to get back to this. It took me a little while to figure out that DebugConsole was a class from the SDK, but I managed to get an output of the websocket (below):

[2020-Oct-29T21:31:46.651] ### Disposing ### 50280062
It is also worth noting that one difference between my local environment and out QA server is that the latter is behind a nginx reverse proxy. I tried tinkering with that to see if it was keeping the websocket from forming, but I started getting the following error instead:
AggregateException
One or more errors occurred. (Unable to establish websocket connection.) (Unable to establish websocket connection.) (Unable to establish websocket connection.) (Unable to establish websocket connection.)
at Qlik.Sense.JsonRpc.RpcConnection.RepeatAttempt(Int32 maxAttempts, Func`2 f, CancellationToken token)
at Qlik.Sense.JsonRpc.RpcConnection.OpenAsync(CancellationToken token)
at Qlik.Sense.JsonRpc.RpcConnection.EnsureConnectionIsOpen()

at Qlik.Engine.Communication.QlikConnection.PingAsync()
at Qlik.Engine.LocationExtensions.DisposeOnErrorAsync(IDisposable o, Func`1 f)
at Qlik.Engine.LocationExtensions.HubAsync(ILocation location, ISession session)
This leads me to believe that the "Ticket retrieval failed" error occurs AFTER the websocket connection has been established, so it might not be the reverse proxy blocking the websocket, but I could be wrong.
I am going to try the rest_sdk, but I am curious if there is a way to interact with the engine service with plain HTTP requests instead of establishing a websocket?
