DBeaver: column description missing for DB2 Host

We are using DBeaver with a DB2 host database. Table descriptions get displayed just fine. But for table columns there is no description under table properties→columns. 

SELECT name,tbname, LABEL FROM SYSIBM.syscolumns

yields the correct/desired information.

Can I fix this through driver settings?

Thanks!

I know this is an old post but I have been searching for an answer as well. Now that I found a resolution to my issue, I thought I would share it here in hopes that it helps others. This is DBeaver v22.0.1

Driver Manager Level Settings:

The secret is that you can change the setting in the driver manager but it does not seem to propagate down to the individual connections, even after disconnecting and reconnecting the database. I had to set it for the individual connection level.

Good Luck!
