It seems like the WebService(SOAP) Request of JMeter does not include headers in the request defined in a HTTP Header Manager.

I want to send Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate with every SOAP request of my JMeter test - is there a way to achieve that?

Did you find a solution for this? I'm having the same problem.

A: 

The workaround for me was to use the SOAP/XML-RPC Request Sampler instead of the the WebService(SOAP) Request. This one sends the configured request headers to the server.

After that I found out that the incoming compressed response was not decompressed so I filed a bug at https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=48542 and created a patch. The bug is fixed in the trunk and should be included in the current nightly build.
