Node.js HTTP2 server Error: socket hang up

Question

Given the latest version of Node.js with experimental HTTP2 support:

$ node -v
v9.2.0

An HTTP2 server:

var options = {
  key: getKey(),
  cert: getCert(),
  allowHTTP1: true
}

var server = http2.createSecureServer(options)
server.on('stream', onstream)
server.on('error', onerror)
server.on('connect', onconnect)
server.on('socketError', onsocketerror)
server.on('frameError', onframeerror)
server.on('remoteSettings', onremotesettings)
server.listen(8443)

function onconnect() {
  console.log('connect')
}

function onremotesettings(settings) {
  console.log('remote settings', settings)
}

function onframeerror(error) {
  console.log('frame error', error)
}

function onsocketerror(error) {
  console.log('socket error', error)
}

function onerror(error) {
  console.log(error)
}

function onstream(stream, headers) {
  console.log('stream')
}

And a request made to it:

var https = require('https')

var options = {
  method: 'GET',
  hostname: 'localhost',
  port: '8443',
  path: '/',
  protocol: 'https:',
  rejectUnauthorized: false,
  agent: false
}

var req = https.request(options, function(res){
  var body = ''
  res.setEncoding('utf8')
  res.on('data', function(data){
    body += data;
  });
  res.on('end', function(){
    callback(null, body)
  })
})

req.end()

It just hangs and eventually says:

Error: socket hang up
at createHangUpError (_http_client.js:330:15)
    at TLSSocket.socketOnEnd (_http_client.js:423:23)
    at TLSSocket.emit (events.js:164:20)
    at endReadableNT (_stream_readable.js:1054:12)
    at _combinedTickCallback (internal/process/next_tick.js:138:11)
    at process._tickCallback (internal/process/next_tick.js:180:9)

If rejectUnauthorized: true is set, then it errors:

Error: self signed certificate
    at TLSSocket.onConnectSecure (_tls_wrap.js:1036:34)
    at TLSSocket.emit (events.js:159:13)
    at TLSSocket._finishInit (_tls_wrap.js:637:8)

Not sure what is going wrong and why it won't get to the point of logging stream.

If I go in the browser and visit https://localhost:8443, and click through the warning messages, it does actually log stream and successfully make the request. But haven't been able to get node to make the request.

I would like to treat this as an HTTP1 server, so don't want to use the HTTP2 client to make the request. But tried using that and same thing.
