Fixture record_testsuite_property does not work with pytest-xdist #7767

According to the docs it is possible to add a junit property at test suite level. This will work fine without pytest-xdist but fails when adding -n2 or similiar to pytest args.

Error description
The test suite properties ARCH, STORAGE_TYPE shown below are not contained in the junit.xml when running pytest-xdist.

Note
I read through the existing test code which does not execute pytest-xdist. Is it wanted to call pytest-xdist in this repository?

How to reproduce

# conftest.py
import pytest

@pytest.fixture(scope="session", autouse=True)
def log_global_env_facts(record_testsuite_property):
    record_testsuite_property("ARCH", "PPC")
    record_testsuite_property("STORAGE_TYPE", "CEPH")

# test_me.py
class TestMe:
    def test_foo(self):
        assert True
