The if statement is never reached, because only the location is matched when a file is requested.
If the URL /media/ is in /home/my_app/media/ directory, you cannot use root like that. You need to either use alias /home/my_app/media/ or root /home/my_app/.
You should try this (updated version):
location ~* ^/media/.+.(?:ico|css|js|gif|jpe?g|png)$ {
autoindex off;
root /home/my_app/media/;
expires 365d;
add_header Pragma public;
add_header Cache-Control "public";
if ($arg_dl = "1") {
add_header Content-disposition "attachment; filename=$1";
}
}
