Please note that after having installed JBossWS 4.1.1.Final on top of JBoss AS 7.1.1.Final, the org/apache/cxf module is changed, in particular you'll see that you have 2 modules: org.apache.cxf and org.apache.cxf.impl. The latter should include the schema you're looking for, so try modifying the module name in your jboss-deployment-structure.xml accordingly.
