You've got notification_interval 0, which means it will only send one
notification. I'm surprised you get any at all for your escalations
where first_notification is higher than 1.
The delay before the first notification is most likely due to the fact
that Nagios re-checks your host with retry_check_interval *
interval_length seconds and only when max_check_attempts attempts have
failed sends out the notification, while the GUI turns red immediately,
but with a SOFT error state.
