Public bug reported:

Bug #1048634 fixes some Pidgin digest-uri check failures, but not all.
There is another bug where Pidgin users won't be able to log in if there
are multiple virtual hosts and the hostnames in the SRV records for the
two XMPP hosts are different.

For example, suppose ejabberd.cnf contains:

{hosts, ["foo.example", "bar.example"]}.
{fqdn, "xmpp.foo.example"}.

and DNS lookups return the following:

dig -t SRV _xmpp-client._tcp.foo.example. -> xmpp.foo.example:5222
dig -t SRV _xmpp-client._tcp.bar.example. -> xmpp.bar.example:5222
dig -t A xmpp.foo.example. -> 192.0.2.123
dig -t A xmpp.bar.example. -> 192.0.2.123

then Pidgin clients with *@bar.example Jabber IDs are NOT able to log
in. The digest-uri sent by these clients – "xmpp/xmpp.bar.example" –
doesn't pass ejabberd's digest-uri checking logic. Pidgin clients with
*@foo.example Jabber IDs do work, however.

This particular bug has already been fixed upstream:
