java.lang.IllegalStateException: Cannot log transactions as com.mysql.jdbc.jdbc2.optional.MysqlXAConnectionFactory is not a NamedXAResource.

Issue

We configured and exported our JDBC driver in the OSGi Service Registry according to the JBoss Fuse Transaction Guide, chapter Chapter 8. JDBC XA Transaction Integration.

However at runtime we are constantly seeing this error in our Fuse container log file:
