JMSListener selector not working

Question

I have a JMS producer sending 2 kinds of messages: business logic and heart beat messages. Currently, both are handled by the same receiver, but I am now trying to have dedicated classes for each by using selectors. The problem I have is whenever I add the selector to the receiver, it stops receiving messages. Here is what I have so far. For simplicity, I have only added the code for the heart beat:

To send the message, I have this:

private void sendHeartBeat() {
    this.buildTemplate().send(new HeartbeatMessageCreator(this.someId));
}

private JmsTemplate buildTemplate() {
    if (this.cachedJmsTemplate == null) {
        final ActiveMQTopic activeMQTopic = new ActiveMQTopic(this.topic);
        this.cachedJmsTemplate = new JmsTemplate(this.config.getCachedConnectionFactory());
        this.cachedJmsTemplate.setDefaultDestination(activeMQTopic);
        this.cachedJmsTemplate.setPubSubDomain(true);
    }
    return this.cachedJmsTemplate;
}

HeartbeatMessageCreator:

class HeartbeatMessageCreator implements MessageCreator {
private final String someID;

HeartbeatMessageCreator(final String someID) {
    this.someID = someID;
}

@Override
public Message createMessage(final Session session) throws JMSException {
    final Serializable message = new ZHeartBeat(this.someID);
    final Message jmsMessage = session.createObjectMessage(message);
    jmsMessage.setJMSType(message.getClass().getName());
    jmsMessage.setStringProperty("InternalMessageType", "HeartBeat"); // <-- Setting my separator here

    return jmsMessage;
}

The consumer is as follow:

@Component
public class MyListener {

    @JmsListener(destination = "${myTopic}", containerFactory = "myJmsContainer", selector = "InternalMessageType = 'HeartBeat'")
    public final void onMessage(final Message message) {

    ...

    }
}

In this configuration, the consumer never sees the messages coming in, but if I remove the selector part from the @JmsListener annotation, they are delivered. I am not sure what I am doing wrong here. Any idea ?

It works fine for me...

@SpringBootApplication
public class So46453364Application implements CommandLineRunner {

    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
        ConfigurableApplicationContext ctx = SpringApplication.run(So46453364Application.class, args);
        Thread.sleep(10_000);
        ctx.close();
    }

    @Autowired
    private JmsTemplate template;

    @Override
    public void run(String... arg0) throws Exception {
        this.template.convertAndSend("foo", "foo", m -> {
            m.setStringProperty("foo", "bar");
            return m;
        });
        this.template.convertAndSend("foo", "foo", m -> {
            m.setStringProperty("foo", "baz");
            return m;
        });
    }

    @JmsListener(destination = "foo", selector = "foo = 'bar'")
    public void bar(Message in) {
        System.out.println("bar: " + in);
    }

    @JmsListener(destination = "foo", selector = "foo = 'baz'")
    public void baz(Message in) {
        System.out.println("baz: " + in);
    }

}

result
