I wonder if this is to do with the way you are launching cucumber. Try this:
<plugin>
<groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
<artifactId>exec-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>1.4.0</version>
<executions>
<execution>
<id>default-cli</id>
<phase>integration-test</phase>
<goals>
<goal>exec</goal>
</goals>
<configuration>
<executable>java</executable>
<arguments>
<argument>-classpath</argument>
<classpath/>
<argument>cucumber.api.cli.Main</argument>
<argument>--strict</argument>
<argument>--glue</argument>
<argument>insert.my.mappings.package.here</argument>
<argument>--plugin</argument>
<argument>json:${project.build.directory}/cucumber.json</argument>
<argument>--plugin</argument>
<argument>html:${project.build.directory}/cucumber</argument>
<argument>--tags</argument>
<argument>~#ignore</argument>
<argument>src/main/features/${feature}</argument>
</arguments>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
