Ember JS Component - Cannot read property 'currentHandlerInfos' of undefined

In Ember Component action method, whenever I try to return an ajax call synchronously either by using preventDefault() or return false, I get a following error form the console:

route-action.js:15 Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'currentHandlerInfos' of undefined at getRoutes (route-action.js:15) at getRouteWithAction (route-action.js:20) at Class.action (route-action.js:52) at Backburner._join (backburner.js:814) at Backburner.join (backburner.js:529) at Function.run.join (ember-metal.js:4453) at action.js:364 at exports.flaggedInstrument (ember-metal.js:4012) at action.js:363 at Class. (action.js:333)

Has anyone encountered this issue with Ember before?
