Spring TCP Endpoint Does Not Start

Hello

Normally when I bring up Mule I'll see a messages like this that indicate the endpoints are started:
2007-05-29 11:59:56,592 INFO [org.mule.providers.tcp.TcpConnector] - <Registering listener: CreateEmployeeService60662 on endpointUri: tcp://localhost:60662/tcpCreateEmployeeService60662?method=createEmployee>
2007-05-29 11:59:56,592 DEBUG [org.mule.providers.tcp.TcpMessageReceiver] - <Connecting: TcpMessageReceiver{this=93069b, receiverKey=tcp://localhost:60662, endpoint=tcp://localhost:60662/tcpCreateEmployeeService60662?method=createEmployee}>
2007-05-29 11:59:56,635 DEBUG [org.mule.providers.SimpleRetryConnectionStrategy] - <Successfully connected to tcp://localhost:60662/tcpCreateEmployeeService60662?method=createEmployee>
2007-05-29 11:59:56,635 INFO [org.mule.providers.tcp.TcpMessageReceiver] - <Connected: TcpMessageReceiver{this=93069b, receiverKey=tcp://localhost:60662, endpoint=tcp://localhost:60662/tcpCreateEmployeeService60662?method=createEmployee}>

When I configure endpoints using Spring I do not see those messages and any attempt to connect to the endpoints fail. It seems they are not getting started. Am I missing something?

Thanks
Tom

Here's my Spring Config:
