When you make a request for s01.example.com, do you connect to [ip1],
[ip2], [ip3], or something else?

Which server{} do you think is being used? Which server do you want nginx to use?

For what it is worth, a config line like

        try_files $uri $uri/ @apache =404;

will never try to use the @apache location.

Good luck with it,
