Feedback

Manually settings the header works tho.
Ktor Client 1.1.3 plain JVM, Apache engine.

HttpClient(Apache|Jetty|CIO) { // <-- all 3 engines have the problem
    install(Logging) {
        level = LogLevel.ALL
    }
    install(Auth) {
        basic {
            username = Settings.mainServerUsername
            password = Settings.mainServerPassword
        }
    }
    install(JsonFeature) {
        serializer = KotlinxSerializer()
    }
}

Logging output is:

Hi @lamba92, thanks for the report.
The issue was in the logging ResponseObserver.
It fixed in the develop and I also add the test to check for your case.
