I tried this workaround. And it fixes the issue, but now I see this warning:

##[warning] Knob: UseLegacyHttpHandler = true Source: ${AZP_AGENT_USE_LEGACY_HTTP} (DEPRECATED) ##[warning]Legacy http handler will be removed in one of the next agent releases with migration to .Net Core 6. We are highly recommend to not use it.
