I play electric for my lessons (my instructor has 35 electric guitars and two acoustics) and have found that it is much easier to play barre chords on electric versus acoustic. It's much easier to play barre chords on an acoustic when it's set up for a lower action, however. Still not as easy as with an electric though. Maybe try going to a shallower acoustic body (000 or OM) or try a classical positioning. Or adjust your strap to make the guitar sit higher (I don't wear a strap when seated but some do).
