I have had issues when mulching peppers too heavy. Pull some of your straw back away from the main stems. Otherwise the mulch holds too much moisture against the stem and can rot it out right at ground level.

One of my go-to sites is Pepper Geek. Here is their page on diseases:

Thank you Ken. Will pull the straw back this evening.
