An very similar problem exists for int and char overloads:
alias foo = (char c) => 1;
alias foo = (int i) => 4;
enum int e = 7;

Wait a minute! This doesn't appear to be a casting or overload
problem. Can you really overload aliases in D?

Yes.
auto foo(int x){ return x; }
auto bar(double x){ return x+1; }
alias qux=foo;
alias qux=bar;
void main(){
import std.stdio;
writeln(qux(1)," ",qux(1.0)); // 1 2
}
This is by design. The fact that the following does not work is just a
(known) compiler bug:
alias qux=(int x)=>x;
alias qux=(double x)=>x+1;
void main(){
import std.stdio;
writeln(qux(1)," ",qux(1.0)); // error
}
