ESPhome uses mDNS witch is a multicast protocol, multicast does not cross vlans.
You have 4 options:
Use a Firewall/Router that permits mDNS to cross vlans
Use Avahi reflector on a RPI connected to all vlans
On hass.io add the "status_use_ping=true"
On esphome docker dashboard use the env "ESPHOME_DASHBOARD_USE_PING=true"
