Blank Session Variable Reports from APM

So I'm having issues with session variable reports coming back. They are frequently showing no or blank data - every now and then they do come back correctly, but more frequently than not it's just blank.

Digging into this a little bit, there is a facade.jsp call with some parameters filled to retrieve this information. The response from this call is generating the following:

{error:"java.io.IOException unknown response MIIGijCCBXKgAwIBAgIKHfS6JwABAM7QHjANBgkqhkiG9w0BAQsFADCBvDELMAkG"}

Has anyone else experienced this? Thoughts on ways to resolve?

    I believe you are running into a known issue.

    -Could you tell me what version of BigIP you are running?

    -What types of objects do you have in your Access Policy?

    My guess is an issue being tracked under BZ 536575 which is only fixed by Engineering Hotfix currently. A workaround would be to use 

    sessiondump
    on the CLI to report your session variables.
