If QA has between 4 and 12 million rows, then the planner's row
estimate for the condition thinks 11457484 are going to match, so a
Seqscan is likely best here. If those estimates are off then it might
be worth double checking your nightly analyze is working correctly on
QA.
The planner may be able to be coaxed into using the index with a
higher effective_cache_size and/or a lower random_page_cost setting,
although you really should be looking at those row estimates first.
Showing us the EXPLAIN ANALYZE would have been much more useful so
that we could have seen if those are accurate or not.
