Hi Tom, Apologies for not giving more context/code however, your analysis is right on the spot. Thanks for the hint!
I ended up closing and re-opening the connection between fixtures instead of persisting them which is what was happening before. While it doesn't fix the root cause of the issue (it's in the JDBC driver side after all, not something I want to touch), it suffices for our use case.
