None of the above solutions worked for me, but I found it in MOTECH project documentation here: http://docs.motechproject.org/en/latest/deployment/sticky_session_apache.html

This config works for me (on Apache 2.4.41):

    (...)
    Header add Set-Cookie "ROUTEID=.%{BALANCER_WORKER_ROUTE}e; path=/" env=BALANCER_ROUTE_CHANGED
    (...)
    
        (...)
        BalancerMember http://10.20.30.40:8080 route=backend-1 enablereuse=On
        BalancerMember http://10.20.30.41:8080 route=backend-2 enablereuse=On

        ProxySet lbmethod=bytraffic
        ProxySet stickysession=ROUTEID
        (...)
    

    ProxyPass / balancer://mycluster/
    ProxyPassReverse / balancer://mycluster/
    (...)
