I tried the beta gem and encountered the same problem. Finally figured out the cause. The example in README.md shows code where the channel name is a symbol. This causes problems and i'm guessing its because when the request is converted to a HTTP request, the symbol is converted to a string and when the response is received and the channel is compared with the one stored in the Subscription object, the comparison takes place between a string and a symbol so the callback in this piece of code does not get called -

def fire_callback_for(envelope)
      $log.debug "CALLING SUBSCRIPTION CALLBACK FOR CHANNEL #{@channel}" if envelope.channel == @channel

      @callback.call envelope if envelope.channel == @channel
      $log.debug "AFTER CALLING SUBSCRIPTION CALLBACK FOR CHANNEL #{@channel}"

    end

If i switch to using a string type for the channel name, it works fine.
