Setting the root log level will always override any settings for individual category log levels (as a result if the <overrideRootLogLevel> is set all category log levels set elsewhere will be ignored.

Individual Log Levels
You can override individual log levels by setting them in your jmeter.properties file. If you want to override them in the POM have a look at Adding Additional Properties To <propertiesJMeter>.
