AngularJS not detecting Access-Control-Allow-Origin header?

Question

I am running an angular app on a local virtualhost (http://foo.app:8000). It is making a request to another local VirtualHost (http://bar.app:8000) using $http.post.

$http.post('http://bar.app:8000/mobile/reply', reply, {withCredentials: true}); 

In the Network tab of Chrome Developer Tools I of course see the OPTIONS request, and the response includes the header:

Access-Control-Allow-Origin: http://foo.app:8000 

However, the POST request is cancelled with the following error:

No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource. Origin 'http://foo.app:8000' is therefore not allowed access.

Has anyone experienced this? The Access-Control-Allow-Origin header is very plainly included in the response of the OPTIONS request, so I can't for the life of me figure out why the POST is acting the header was missing.

Access-Control-Allow-Credentials is also set to true.

It's a bug in chrome for local dev. Try other browser. Then it'll work.
