I took a look, and it may seem to be that this is configured from /etc/matrix-synapse/log.yaml. This change by andrewsh may be relevant: https://salsa.debian.org/matrix-team/matrix-synapse/commit/ff086b91c0c7a34ab2167178174cbe3978bd442e Upstream seems to log to file and console handlers. Debian logs to file and journal. I don't think it's uncommon for running daemons to fail to journalctl (on systemd) "quietly". If this is an issue with sysvinit/non-systemd inits only, then I can agree there's a possible issue to fix.
