Does https://nginx.org/en/docs/http/request_processing.html explain what
you are seeing?

If not, can you show one small but complete configuration that shows
the problem that you are reporting?

"name-based virtual servers" are based around listening on the same
port, and having the http server responding differently based on the
Host: in the incoming request. It would be surprising if that feature
became broken.

The documentation for "listen" at https://nginx.org/r/listen does note
that some parameters only make sense when set once (or set the same each
time, if they are set more than once); I don't know if you are hitting
one of those cases?

Cheers,
