Spring AMQP/RabbitMQ transaction rollback in EJB3 CMT - spring

Question

I am trying to test the rollback of a transaction that was initiated by EJB3 container, which involves the Spring JPA repository call and the message sender to the RabbitMQ using Spring AMQP integration. After the CMT rollback I see the DB transaction gets rolled back, but the message is getting delivered to the queue.
I am injecting the spring bean into the EJB that makes a call to the Rabbit template and it has #Transactional annotation. What I see is the TransactionInterceptor is committing the transaction after the Spring bean send message call. I was hoping it would delegate the commit to the container.
Any suggestions/workarounds are appreciated. I wasn't able to figure out how to initialize the TransactionSynchronizationManager without using the #Transactional annotation.
Here is the code that is committing the transaction when the spring bean proxy executes the TransactionInterceptor code:
ResourceHolderSynchronization
#Override
public void afterCommit()
{
if (!shouldReleaseBeforeCompletion()){ -- this method returns false
processResourceAfterCommit(this.resourceHolder); -- this is calling commitAll
}
}
ConnectionFactoryUtils/RabbitResourceSynchronization
#Override
protected boolean shouldReleaseBeforeCompletion() {
return !this.transacted; -- transacted is true (channelTransacted)
}
RabbitResourceHolder
public void commitAll() throws AmqpException {
try {
for (Channel channel : this.channels) {
if (deliveryTags.containsKey(channel)) {
for (Long deliveryTag : deliveryTags.get(channel)) {
channel.basicAck(deliveryTag, false);
}
}
channel.txCommit();
}
} catch (IOException e) {
throw new AmqpException("failed to commit RabbitMQ transaction", e);
}
}
Here is my spring configuration:
<tx:jta-transaction-manager/>
<tx:annotation-driven />
<rabbit:connection-factory id="rabbitConnectionFactory"
addresses="node01:5672,node02:5672" username="user.." password="pwd..." />
<bean id="rabbitTemplate"

<property name="channelTransacted" value="true" />
</bean>
