Metro client freezes when calling WCF web server using wsHttpBinding

I created a webservice client with local wsdl using Metro 1.2 as follows:

./wsimport.sh -extension -verbose -wsdllocation service.wsdl -s src -d target service.wsdl -Xendorsed

Wsdl uses SOAP 1.2and wsHttpBinding. It must connect to the WCF server using NTLMas an authentication method.

I created Authenticatorto handle authentication NTLM:

public class NtlmAuthenticator extends Authenticator
{
    private String username = "";
    private String password = "";

    public NtlmAuthenticator(String username, String password) {
        this.username = username;
        this.password = password;
    }

    @Override
    protected PasswordAuthentication getPasswordAuthentication() {
        return new PasswordAuthentication(username, password.toCharArray());
    }
}

which I set before each webservice method:

@WebEndpoint(name = "WSHttpBinding_ICustomerService")
public ICustomerService getWSHttpBindingICustomerService() {
    ICustomerService service =
        super.getPort(new QName("http://xmlns.example.com/services/Customer",
                "WSHttpBinding_ICustomerService"), ICustomerService.class);

    NtlmAuthenticator auth = new NtlmAuthenticator(username, password);  
    Authenticator.setDefault(auth);   

    return service;
}

If I use the wrong username / password, I get back 401 Unauthorizedback, which is fine and everything, but when I use the correct username / password, the call hangs and I never get an answer!

The request looks like this (captured using netcat, so the host is different and there is no https):

POST / HTTP/1.1
Content-type: application/soap+xml;charset="utf-8";action="http://xmlns.example.com/services/ICustomerService/GetCustomer"
Password: [password]
Authorization: Basic [auth]

[xml follows]
