ActiveMQ does not stop subscription when flex client disconnects - activemq

Question

I'm using activeMQ 5.3 to send messages to a flex client via blazeds 3.2.
When the client connects for the first time, I can see the subscriptions to the activeMQ broker being made. However, after I kill the browser that runs the client the subscriptions remain open even though no messages are being consumed anymore. This finally results in an out-of-memory of the web server. From the logs it looks like Blazeds is unsubscribing from the feeds.
Shouldn't blazeds stop the subscription when there are no clients that connect anymore and why isn't he doing that?
Below you can find a snippet from the log files.

Does look like a blazeds problem of not closing down the connection
