An empty entry in pg_tables means the table is in the database's
default tablespace, whether you made it that way implicitly or explicitly.
So this looks as-expected to me. You'd need to spread the database across
more than one tablespace to get anything in that column.

If you didn't do anything to change that setting, that would also be
expected. Again, the interpretation is "use the database's default
tablespace".
