For what it is worth, we ran into this issue as well. We actually found an
answer! I know that this thread is a few months old but perhaps this answer
will help the next poor soul who runs into this.

By default rsyslog will only allow 20 TCP listeners. Rsyslog appears to
count IPv4 and IPv6 as independent listeners (meaning each imtcp counts as
2 listening ports). <!-- m --><a class="postlink"

To change this you can set MaxLIsteners to be greater than 20. What we did
was:
module(load="imudp")
module(load="imtcp" MaxListeners="50")
