In your browser what do you get when accessing:

https://www.duckdns.org/update?verbose=true&domains=xxxx&token=a632273f-xxxx-xxxx-98ef-3ff547207f7e&ip=1x.xx.xx.xx

(replace values as well)

Do you get the IP you sent 1x.... or the older one 2x....??

Here's the response I got directly from the browser (I am using Chrome):

OK

I just realise you were running Running version latest built on 2020-03-13T01:30:06Z and this issue is from march 2022... maybe try docker pull qmcgaw/ddns-updater and restart the container to see if it works?

This should be resolved in the latest image now (and also perhaps in previous release v2.5.0)
