Looking into the postmaster's log would be informative, but I suspect
what is happening is that systemd is allowing the postmaster to start
before those non-default interfaces are up.  This is one of the ways
systemd sucks :-( ... it's actually quite hard to prevent that.
"After=network.target" does *not* do it, at least not without munging
the definition of that target.

I don't offhand recall the solution for this, but it's a systemd
question not a Postgres question.  Googling on that basis might help.
