You wrote "Interestingly, if I feed the ctest with the build 
configuration, [...]"

Hence my answer for a "CMake template workflow", aka a workflow that 
works everywhere independent of the generator. So no surprises and you 
did seem surprised.
The initially showed commands to not set the build type at all, which is 
usually wrong.  That is another issue is solved by following this 
"template workflow".
I'm not even sure what `cmake --build .` is supposed to do for 
multi-config generators. I'd expect it to error out.

Hope that helps,
