quarkus: panache does not find UUID fields

Describe the bug

@Entity
public class Session extends PanacheEntity {

	public UUID uuid;

	public static Session findByUuid(UUID uuid){
		return find("uuid", uuid).firstResult();
	}

}

Expected behavior the above findByUuid method returns a Session object when searched for a previously persisted Session

Actual behavior always returns null

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. persist session object
2. try to retrieve it by uuid
3. no object could be retrieved, it returns null

Configuration

# datasource configuration
quarkus.datasource.url = jdbc:mariadb://localhost:3306/mydatabase
quarkus.datasource.driver = org.mariadb.jdbc.Driver
quarkus.datasource.username = myuser
quarkus.datasource.password = mypassword

# drop and create the database at startup (use `update` to only update the schema)
quarkus.hibernate-orm.database.generation=drop-and-create
#quarkus.hibernate-orm.database.generation=update
quarkus.hibernate-orm.dialect=org.hibernate.dialect.MariaDB102Dialect
quarkus.hibernate-orm.log.sql=true
