This seems consistent with your settings (excerpt from [1]):

    # Uncomment this if you don't want to use a network mirror.
    d-i apt-setup/use_mirror boolean false
    # Select which update services to use; define the mirrors to be used.
    # Values shown below are the normal defaults.
    d-i apt-setup/services-select multiselect
    #d-i apt-setup/security_host string security.debian.org

 1. http://web.ist.utl.pt/ist24403/preseed.cfg

since apt-setup/use_mirror=false means the cdrom: URI will be kept and
no network mirror is to be used?

Hopefully somebody else will pick up this specific part.
