Running an Akka Cluster with EC2 and Docker. Nodes

I implemented the following sample of the akka-cluster system, please see below diagram:

                                 ┌────host_D:3000────┐
                        ┌───────▶│    ....           │  
                        │      ┌────host_C:3000────┐ │  
 ┌────host_A:2551────┐  │ ┌───▶│                   │ │

 └───────────────────┘       └───────────────────┘

The MasterActor and WorkerActor are implemented in separated sbt-modules and started with using scalatra-servlets. So an actor system is created in ServletContextListener when a particular sbt module is deployed.

The MasterActor and WorkerActor are subscribed to the cluster events (such as MemberJoin/Up/etc). The WorkerActor can be scaled on the different nodes. And the following restrictions for the ports are used:

2551 - for the MasterActor's cluster node
3000 - for the WorkerActor's cluster node

I need to focus on cluster-events only. Because the following details were omitted in this topic:

detecting of seed-nodes (they calculated by EC2 client)
sending messages from MasterActor to workers (they are sent by some load balancer).

This works successfully on my local machine (and with using virtual machines under VirtualBox). But I've faced with the issues when I deployed on EC2/docker. For example, I use two EC2 hosts with the following IP: 10.x.x.A and 10.x.x.B. The my project can be deployed in EC2 in the following ways:

MasterActor module at 10.x.x.A and WorkerActor module at 10.x.x.B
vice versa
the modules are deployed in the same host.

I consider the way#1 when modules are deployed in the different hosts. Since I don't known which IP will be used for the MasterActor then I reserve a seed-nodes for each node. According to the above restrictions for the ports. Please see below diagram which illustrates the my infrastructure and akka-cluster configuration.

Into the each EC2 instance I illustrated the result of ifconfig command. The same was illustrated into each docker. For akka-cluster configuration I used this manual:

The main issue: the MasterActor node is started and registered itself in the akka-cluster successfully. But the WorkerActoris started but doesn't registered in the akka-cluster.

The main questions: is this a correct configuration for the my cluster system? Are there any mistakes?

Also I've found some issue which can be connected with the main issue:
