EJB over HTTP fails with "Invalid application_layer_protocol_negotiation extension" when SSL is enabled

Issue

We have a 2 nodes clustered JBoss EAP with mod_cluster setup and a java client application invokes EJB over HTTP using the mod_cluster virtual host. Invocation fails with the following error:

Fatal (UNEXPECTED_MESSAGE): Invalid application_layer_protocol_negotiation extension: Only client specified application protocol is allowed in ServerHello message (
"throwable" : {
  javax.net.ssl.SSLProtocolException: Invalid application_layer_protocol_negotiation extension: Only client specified application protocol is allowed in ServerHello message
