You can try to add debug logging in HTTP::WebTest::Cookies in sub
extract_cookies() which is called when LWP tries to extract cookies
from HTTP headers of HTTP response and store them in cookie jar and in
sub add_cookie_header() which is called when LWP reads cookie jar and
adds cookie HTTP headers in HTTP response.

BTW what is hostname of your server? IIRC LWP used to *not* send
cookies for servers which do not have at least two dots in their
hostname. I.e. it will not send cookies for server hostnames like
localhost.
