Spring application behaves differently when adding AOP Advice
<p>I'm using Spring Integration for a project for which a logging aspect was created. Using AOP annotations the aspect is configured. The application works as expected with the logging annotation commented. But if the annotation is uncommented then the app still work, but the boolean field applySequence magically becomes false. </p>

<p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/LDgm3m.png" alt="applySequence == true at the target object">

<p>Any help is appreciated.</p>
