As can be seen the main problem is that the scan topic is not being read by move_base. Apparently this is because I am using gmapping instead of amcl, since when I change to amcl it works OK.

In case of gmapping, thanks to this answer, I finally managed to solve the problem by setting the following in the global_costmap_params.yaml:

static_map: false
rolling_window: true

However it imposes a huge computational burden on the system and the computer on board starts to run slowly. I guess there should be a better way to do that. In such a way that the global planner plans using the static map and the local planner takes care of obstacle avoidance. Any ideas?
