Its a security feature. You can change that in settings -> Network & Connections -> NFC
OP mentioned that they DO have it set....
I have never figured this out, it used to bother me a lot, but then I mostly got over it. Then i decided that I wanted an extended battery more than the use of my NFC.
So long story short, no clue, and if you figure it out I'd love to hear it.
As mentioned in the settings NFC with screen off is just possible at special situations and circumstances (Payment transactions, access to buildings, or use of an special SIM card)

Otherwise I have no clue on how to change it.
Ya, now that I look again, you are correct!
At first I thought it was just for the last option, but I see it now
