Spot on, once I upgraded the client to 15.2.8 I was able to enable rbd-mirror 
snapshots and create them while the VM was running. 

However, I have noticed that I am also able to break replication when the rbd 
is being used by a KVM VM. 

While writing data in the VM, I took a rbd snapshot, then kicked off a mirror 
snapshot. I took the rbd snapshot and mirror snapshot from one the osd nodes.

I tried restarting the rbd-mirror services but no luck. 

I ended up issuing a resync and that got things moving until I repeated the 
steps again. 

I have the option of using KRBD but not sure if that will help in this 
situation.

I suspect that you have the exclusive-lock feature enabled and the 
QEMU hypervisor host has a pre-octopus version of librbd.
