Issues Setting Up Reverse Proxy (via Apache for Windows) for Subsonic

Hey Guys -

After not using it for a while, I decided to set Subsonic back up on my home server today. I installed and configured it without issue and still even had 4040 forwarded in my router. I also host many other web-based apps & services on the server and therefore have Reverse Proxy via Apache set up and configured so that I may access each of them from a central address - plus - have them all under the HTTPS SSL cert I purchased for my domain name.

My Issue
I added Subsonic to the conf file as I did all my other services. When I test it, though, it doesn't work. When browsing to the new address via reverse proxy, I go to "https://mydomainname.com/subsonic" but fails. Instead, I get the 404 error: "Not Found - The requested URL /index. view was not found on this server." Also, in the address bar the address has changed from "https://mydomainname.com/subsonic" to "https://mydomainname.com/index.view"

Apache, Subsonic, and even my media are all installed on Windows 8.1 Update 1 x64 which is fully patched. I have Windows Firewall completely disabled as I manage all firewall configs directly on my router (OpenWRT.) I found a few resources online and tried different configurations, but they either didn't work or the Apache service wouldn't start after making the changes. Most resource I found online were for Linux installations, but most except paths should be the same I thought. Below are my two Apache conf files I use - httpd.conf & httpd-ssl.conf. All locations for RP are defined at the end of httpd.conf with Subsonic's settings at the very end of the conf file. Based on what I've seen, it seems that the way I have Apache configured (using two files) may not be common, but it's how the guide I used said to set it up and it works for my other sites.

Note: Here are the complete files to download/view or they are listed below excluding comments to save space. Each have obviously been renamed to *.txt for attachment purposes.

System Specs
- Windows 8.1 Update 1 x64 Fully Patched
- Edited Security on Subsonic folder to give Users full rights
- Subsonic 5.2.1 (build 4428) – March 4, 2015 - Installed using defaults
- HTTP set to 4040 / Default homepage is "http://localhost:4040/index.view"
- Mostly use Google Chrome but tried in IE locally and remotely also
- Do have myserver.subsonic.org configured - perhaps put it in conf file instead of local ip?

Well, that's about it. Any suggestions for how to get reverse proxy working given my setup would be very much appreciated. Thank You!
