Just to be sure, do you get at least some plans logged by auto_explain when
queries are executed by the JDBC application?

Can you try to temporarily lower auto_explain.log_min_duration_statements to
less than 50ms and see what auto_explain sees for the execution time (and
planning time).

Another possibility would be some conflicting locks held.  If the conflict
happens during the planning auto_explain still won't be triggered as it's
outside the executor.  Also, have you enabled log_lock_waits?
