This issue will be fixed soon. Before this, there is no good workaround that can avoid message stuck. Those stuck messages won't be delivered until you restart the node. About the message piling up on one node without consumers. Did you configure the message sucker? The message sucker will poll messages from the node that has no consumers on it.
