This is the third thread you started on pgsql-bugs about the issues with
advisory locks you're facing. And the other two kinda got abandoned
because you have not even responded to people trying to help you.

Also, this very much does not seem like a bug - at least you have not
provided any data that would suggest it's not a simple pilot error, e.g.
because someone else is holding the lock. So pgsql-bugs may not be the
best list to discuss thisl.

Please do this:

1) Stop sending messages to pgsql-bugs unless when it's about a bug (and
you have some data to show it). Use pgsql-general instead.

2) Don't abandon the messages, respond to people trying to help you.

3) For this particular issue, it'd be good to know PID of the session
that is waiting, ID of the lock it's waiting on, and data from pg_locks.
