Hmm, we’re used to handling that quite often, but what is confusing to me is the SP does have an encryption certificate with this in their metadata,

<KeyDescriptor use="encryption">
                <ds:KeyInfo xmlns:ds="http://www.w3.org/2000/09/xmldsig#">
                    <ds:x509Data>….

in addition to the signing cert (same cert)

<KeyDescriptor use="signing">
                <ds:KeyInfo xmlns:ds="http://www.w3.org/2000/09/xmldsig#">
                    <ds:x509Data>

That's encryption. If you don't allow the IdP to treat that as optional or turn it off explicitly, encryption is assumed to be mandatory.

Most people probably set the property to make encryption optional I would think, I certainly do.
