I'd try connecting the first way and seeing what "show listen_addresses" gives. Per your report it should be "*", but maybe something is overriding that.
If it is "*", then it seems like something is interfering with expanding that. Maybe try explicitly setting it to "localhost"?
it is empty in my docker container (but "localhost" on my prod server), so I probably need to investigate that...
$ psql words_de
psql (17.2)
Type "help" for help.
words_de=> show listen_addresses;
listen_addresses
------------------
(1 row)
words_de=> set listen_addresses='localhost';
ERROR: parameter "listen_addresses" cannot be changed without restarting the server
