You are wanting non-free.  I do not believe Debian apt-proxy will have
a configuration for non-free by default.  It's against the DFSG, after
all.

Edit /etc/apt-proxy/apt-proxy.conf and add this.  This is what I added
to my apt-proxy.conf file.  (However, I may have made other edits too
and this might not be all that is needed.)

add_backend /non-free/                                  \
        $APT_PROXY_CACHE/debian/                        \
        ftp.us.debian.org::debian/                      \
        ftp.de.debian.org::debian/                      \
        ftp2.de.debian.org::debian/                     \
        ftp.uk.debian.org::debian/

To debug these problems edit your /etc/apt/sources.list file and
remove all but *one* directory and try an 'apt-get update'.  Walk
through the directories individually.  Any that do not work will need
an individual configuration in the apt-proxy.conf.  Or at the very
least should point you close to the problem.
