Does this also occur if you just use nmap to scan your targets? Is there
any chance one of the targets is acting as a tarpit?

What exactly do you mean by "all available scan options"? Which port
scanners are selected? Also, what port range are you scanning?

And when you say it doesn't scan another machine's IP, do you mean
nessus doesn't launch any other plugins because it considers the host(s)
dead?
