Configuring APM with Datadog for Observability

Is anyone here using datadog for their observability that might be able to help me configure the APM? I can get logs formatted just fine and ingested by the datadog agent, but I can't seem to figure out traces. I can use the datadog dd-trace library to automatically instrument, say, 
http
, but it doesn't see any of the spans that effect creates.

Here's my nodesdk setup:
  return NodeSdk.layer(() => ({
    spanProcessor: new BatchSpanProcessor(new OTLPTraceExporter()),
    metricReader: new PeriodicExportingMetricReader({
      exporter: new OTLPMetricExporter(),
    }),
    tracerConfig: {},
    resource,
  }));


And I've tried some various dd-trace setups, this latest one "works" in that datadog spans do make it to the agent, but it's not seeing the Effect ones.
import tracer from 'dd-trace';

tracer.init();

tracer.use('http');

const { TracerProvider } = tracer;
const provider = new TracerProvider();

provider.register();
