Aha, it sounded like you were complaining that you got a (single) miss
after the object expired. If you are getting multiple misses, it's a
different story.

If you attach varnishlog -o output of both the first miss that gets cached,
a cache hit and the two first miss after it is expired, I'm pretty sure we
can figure this out.

Oh, and your VCL, and while we're at it, we might as well throw in
varnishstat -1.
