You can't. For very obvious security reasons the browser only allows
proxy authentication if it thinks it is talking to a proxy.

By using transparent interception proxying you are violating TCP/IP
standards in many ways, and certain things simply cannot work with
transparent interception proxying. Proxy authentication is one such
thing.
