I'm pretty sure that my configs are up to date.

As I discovered and tried to explain below, the hook is called before the
Auth object is filled. And there I get false from the various Auth::get...
calls.
But the hook gets recalled later on in the login process and then the
Auth::get... calls also return the desired values.
Now that I know this, I modified the hook in the way that it just returns if
Auth::get... returns false. Before I wasn't checking that and used the any
returned value for doing an ldap lookup. That was confusing me, because of
errors in the subsequent ldap lookups.

Maybe I didn't get everything, but is there a reason why the hook gets
called 4 times at login?
