Your issue doesn't have anything to do with the Keycloak server side user
sessions, they don't require sticky sessions.
Your issue is down to the http session on the adapter side not being
replicated by default. For the adapter you've got 3 choices: sticky
session, replicated session or stateless. Which is best depends on your
application.

configure them, but I am curious. What is the reason for the problems with
round robin in this test scenario? Are the infinispan caches not replicated
fast enough or is there an implementation limitation in the adapters?
