I tried to reproduce with tests/uds-access.sh, but the first two test
cases always failed. I tried different kernels with and without my
unix-stream sockmap patches. Also tried standard debian 4.19
kernel and they all have the same result.  What distro did you use? centos?
Fedora? Have you tested on debian based distros?

I tried to compare logs between RC=0 and RC=1, but they look  to me
not apple to apple comparison? The read syscall have different parameters
and the syscall sequences are different. I am not sure which syscall
is the first failure.  See more comments below.

Is this shutdown expected?

This read failure seems due to the previous shutdown, right?
