Coldfusion Websockets server with Angular front-end?

Question

Anyone here have any success with a CF server running WebSockets and an AngularJS front-end?  I'm having some trouble and hoping for help.
Just one channel on the server:
     THIS.wschannels = [{name="test1"}];
As a note, this Application.cfc is in a subdirectory (api/rest) where we're running our taffy rest backend.  Should it be moved to the top lever, or does it matter?
On the front end I've tried a few things along these lines:
    var ws = new WebSocket("ws://localhost:8575/api/rest");
    ws.onopen = function(){ 
        console.log("Socket has been opened!"); 
    ws.onmessage = function(message) {
        listener(JSON.parse(message.data));
    function listener(data) {
      var messageObj = data;
      console.log("Received data from websocket: ", messageObj);
$scope.send = function() {
      ws.send("Hello WebSockets!");
I'm running to local angular clients on different ports and runnign the send from one.  Never see a response anywhere.  Suggestions?
Any leads appreciated.

My situation was somewhat different but running Test-CsAddressBookService would fail with error:
'The remote server returned an error: (404) Not Found.'
All clients were unable to retrieve contact unless the full sip address was entered.
Environment.
Server: Lync2013 STD
Client: Lync2010
Did the following:
Checked replication under the Topology tab in CSCP- mine has a green check.
Reinstalled .net 4.5 via add/remove programs
Registed .net by running the following from an elevated cmd (run from .net folder) : aspnet_regiss.exe -I
uninstalled Lync webcomponents from add/remove programs
From Lync install media- reinstalled webcomponents.msi (browse to \Setup\amd64\Setup)
Checked IIS>Application Pool and ensured all ASP.NET and Lync components are set to v4.0 of the .Net Framework Version
Launched the Lync setup and reran step 2: Stetup or Remove Lync Server Components.
Reran Test-CsAddressBookService: 
successful
Tested Lync client: Successful
