Maven job in Jenkins not showing ERRORs in Console Output

Question

I have a Maven job defined in Jenkins using the Maven Project Plugin. When this build fails with an error (i.e. missing the web.xml when building a war file or missing a filter properties file), the Console Output in Jenkins for the job does not show the actual ERROR log and this is making debugging failed builds nearly impossible.

Several other similar questions on here suggest using the -e and -X options, but that is not solving the problem. These options are both enabled successfully and debug output is shown, but not the ERROR logs indicating the actual failures.

Is there some additional Jenkins or Maven logging configuration that I need to enable or change to make these ERRORs show up in the Console Output of Jenkins?

These are the versions I am using:

Maven 3.05
Jenkins 1.5.27
Maven Project Plugin 1.5.27

The mvn command:

mvn clean deploy

The output I get when running from the command line - this is what I want to see:

The output I get when running from Jenkins - this is not helpful:

This appears to be a new bug in the core/maven-plugin as reported here: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!msg/jenkinsci-users/kKruFR_k3Ho/ElQAdXs5sG0J

I have verified it works correctly in Jenkins v1.519 and does not work in 1.527, 1.529. As suggested, will consider downgrading to an LTS version or waiting til 1.530.
