Configure Celery with JSON Serializer (Python + node.js)

I'm running a Celery worker in Python with the celery module, and a Celery client in node.js with the node-celery npm package v0.2.7 (not the latest).

The Python Celery worker works fine when sending a job using a Python Celery client.

Problem: When using a node-celery client to send a task to the Celery backend, we get an error in the JS console:

(STDERR) Celery should be configured with json serializer

Python Celery worker is configured with:

app = Celery('tasks', 
    broker='amqp://test:test@192.168.1.26:5672//',
    backend='amqp://',
    task_serializer='json',
    include=['proj.tasks'])

node-celery client is configured with:

var celery = require('node-celery')
var client = celery.createClient({
    CELERY_BROKER_URL: 'amqp://test:test@192.168.1.26:5672//',
    CELERY_RESULT_BACKEND: 'amqp',
    CELERY_TASK_SERIALIZER: "json"
});

client.on('connect', function() {
    console.log('connected');

    client.call('proj.tasks.getPriceEstimates', [start_latitude, start_longitude],
        function(result) {
            console.log('result: ', result);
            client.end();
        })
});

Is this a problem with the configuration on the Python Celery worker? Did we miss out on a configuration parameter which can change the return serialization format to json?
