I wonder if you're hitting this bug, which is listed as fixed in
AsciiDoc 8.6.0 [1]:

    FIXED: Sometimes multiple double quoted text elements in the same
    paragraph were mistakenly seen as starting with an inline literal.

As you said in your other message, it may be better to avoid using the
pretty quotes, although I don't think just changing them to `monospace
output` is sufficient as monospace output is not distinguished in the
default man page output.  IMHO that's necessary for any examples that
contain whitespace.  Perhaps a patch series turning MAN_BOLD_LITERAL on
by default and then changing these examples to `monospace output`?
