@Enumerated ignored when in an @Embeddable entity

When using an @Enumerated(EnumType.STRING) annotation on an embeddable entity property, it is ignored by the orm which saves the enum ordinal value instead of it's string value

Workaround:
Moving the @Enumerated(EnumType.STRING) from the property to the getter makes the unit test succeed

Unit test available on github to demonstrate the bug:
