IIS ignores section staticContent system.webServer

Question

UDPATE

On a whim, I decided to load 4 font files into a font converter. I converted fontsfrom ttf to ttf and then tried. Everything works fine: Content-Type is set correctly and the X-Powered-By header is removed.
Weird

I am trying to change the mime type (Content Type header) of the .ttf file in web.config to IIS7.

Here is the staticContent section inside <system.webServer />:

<staticContent>
    <remove fileExtension=".ttf" />
    <mimeMap fileExtension=".ttf" mimeType="font/ttf" />
</staticContent>

Even with the above configuration, all .ttf files are sent using the / octetstream application.

I also have a customHeader section with the following:

<remove name="X-Powered-By" />

which successfully removes the header X-Powered-Byfor css, png, jpg, gif, ico, .aspx, .htm, .html, shtml and js files. This does NOT, however, work for .ttf.

Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

runAllManagedModulesForAllRequests true.

<system.webServer>
    <modules runAllManagedModulesForAllRequests="true">
        <!-- stuff -->
    </modules>
</system.webServer>
