The scholarly view is generally that Ecclesiastes was written much later than Solomon, probably in the 5th century BCE. (Some say later.) The "son of David, king in Jerusalem" section is more of a teaching tool, with the teacher assuming a fictional persona in order to make his point more vividly.
My favorite commentary (and one that takes this viewpoint on authorship) is CL Seow in the Anchor Bible series. A recent book that takes a fascinating look at the history of how interpreters have seen the authorship of the book is by Thomas Bolin, Ecclesiastes and the Riddle of Authorship:
