That's not entirely accurate, in 3/4 time the autobeaming by default
creates a single beam for the whole measure. In your example there were
only runs of three quavers at a time which probably gave that somewhat
misleading impression. Putting the following lines after the time signature
might give you the result you expect:

\set Timing.beamExceptions = #'()
\set Timing.baseMoment = #(ly:make-moment 1/4)
\set Timing.beatStructure = #'(1 1 1 1)

Best of luck,
Martin
