Does it still hang on a freshly created database?

Do you see any ungranted locks in pg_locks for the process ID of the
waiting backend?

select * from pg_locks where pid=NNN and not granted;

You can obtain the PID from the backend before you execute the query
that's going to hang with:

select pg_backend_pid();

Do you see any rows pg_event_trigger?:

select * from pg_event_trigger;

It seems very unlikely to be a bug in postgres.  I can't reproduce it on either
latest minor version for pg 15 or on HEAD.  Have you checked in
pg_stat_activity and/or pg_locks why the query is waiting on?  Maybe you have
some other extension or are using a fork that's responsible for this behavior?

In any case, the version 15.1 is missing 3 minor versions, so about 9 months
worth of bug fixes.  You should start by updating to 15.4 first and see if you
still have the problem.
