I would like to confirm if multiauth is available on the SG500X switches. I did not see anything in documentation, assuming its not supported on these switches. Would like to confirm, thank you.
multiauth 802.1x - Authenticated multiple clients on the same 802.1x port

look at the Cisco 500 Series Stackable Managed Switches Command Line Interface Reference Guide, Release 1.4
(valid for Sx500 series, so I guess also for SG500x switch)
2.10 dot1x host-mode
Use the dot1x host-mode Interface Configuration mode command
to allow a single host (client) or multiple hosts on an IEEE 802.1X-authorized port.
Use the no form of this command to return to the default setting.

So, it appeared that we were running old firmware, which was causing an issue. Once i updated the firmware, and enabled multi-sessions mode on the port, I was able to authenticate (RADIUS/802.1X) for multiple users/devices coming through the same port etc. Marking pieterh's answer as the solution, thanks all.
