I had the same problem and solved it by not setting the name of the event (i don't know why but this seems to be the solution)... here is the code

OutboundEvent.Builder eventBuilder = new OutboundEvent.Builder();

//WARNING: IF I SET THE NAME OF THE EVENT IT DOES NOT WORK
//eventBuilder.name("message"); 

eventBuilder.mediaType(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON_TYPE);
eventBuilder.data(EventData.class, data);
OutboundEvent event = eventBuilder.build();
