You've configured two distinct caches to use single directory.
This is not how it's expected to work.

You should use distinct directories for each cache you configure.
If you want different locations to use the same cache - just use
the same cache in the proxy_cache directive.

It's ok to use the same cache for different locations/servers.
But it's really bad idea to configure multiple caches in the same
directory, and this is what causes your problems.
