I see no reason why MapServer would (or even could) reuse a connection
already established by the calling PHP Script.

I'd suggest you double-check to make sure your mapfile does not contain
the wrong connection string in one of your layers, and that your script
does not happen to override the layer->connection value for one of your
layers, and if that's not the source of the problem then you'll have to
share a small test case (PHP script + mapfile), ideally with a single
layer definition in it that reproduces the problem and that can be used
to identify and fix it.

BTW, which version of MapServer are you using?
