Description

When using the async appender combined with the JsonLayout, you only get the results of the message being written to the appender.
 
I took a look at it seems like this is because RingBufferLogEvent implements ReusableMessage which is where jackson gets the MessageSerializer, whereas the non async LogEvent doesn't, so it gets the BeanSerializer

Attached are traces, both of which originating from the MessageSerializer.serialize method
