Ok, sorry ! I had not seen your screenshot. Jenkins behaviour does not surprise me. It seems to set the priority to slave where a build has already be done. Otherwise, why do you need this feature ? I'm sure that if you create 10 jobs and launch 10 builds on each, Jenkins will use all available slots without restrict builds to the prefered slave.
