Some more info. I managed to access the JAAS Subject using SecurityContext.getCurrent().getSubject() and printing it clearly shows the correct groups:

filter got subject 'Subject:
        Principal: user1
        Principal: group1
        Principal: group2
        Principal: group3
        Private Credential: Realm=MyRealm Username=user1 Password=######## TargetName = [B_at_139a367
'|#]
