Error "Unable to look up object from jndi using name java:module/ExecutorServiceEJBImpl" when using BPM Suite 6 EJB API

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

When we try to use BPM Suite 6 EJB services API from an EAR deployed in JBoss EAP 6, we have the following exception:

WARN  [org.jbpm.kie.services.impl.KModuleDeploymentService] (default task-1) Unexpected error while deploying unit org.my.kjar.deployment: java.lang.RuntimeException: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Unable to look up object from jndi using name java:module/ExecutorServiceEJBImpl

We register the jBPM EJBs as an EAR module
What are we doing wrong? Is it supported or do we have to use a WAR?
