Answer

Hm. Looks like you don’t register any endpoints via a WebSocketMessageBrokerConfigurer implementation and overriding its registerStompEndpoints(StompEndpointRegistry registry).

Exactly this is a place where StompSubProtocolHandler is added to that SubProtocolWebSocketHandler:

@Override
public StompWebSocketEndpointRegistration addEndpoint(String... paths) {
    this.subProtocolWebSocketHandler.addProtocolHandler(this.stompHandler);
    WebMvcStompWebSocketEndpointRegistration registration =
            new WebMvcStompWebSocketEndpointRegistration(paths, this.webSocketHandler, this.sockJsScheduler);
    this.registrations.add(registration);
    return registration;
}
