Maybe you posted the wrong log, but the one you posted shows an SP requesting the PPT context, so unsurprisingly that's what gets returned.

In the general case that both factors are performed and the SP requests nothing, it's nominally undefined what it will return because any of them are "valid", but you can control it for most purposes by adjusting entries in the PrincipalWeightMap bean to give them relative importance to each other.
