And two data points for issues that already seem settled in prior posts: Costco Gas purchase on 9/30 did yield 5x, and a Costco Gas purchase on 10/1 got 1x.
I had the opposite experience. I opened Samsung Pay directly (after linking to Chase Pay) and used it for a small test purchase on 10/1, today it posted with 5x.
