Failure to locate resources when the application plugin is in use

[aalmiray]

Using the application plugin in conjunction with the modularity plugin results in error when attempting to load resources found in the same package. Take the following project structure

.
├── build.gradle
├── gradle
│   └── wrapper
│       ├── gradle-wrapper.jar
│       └── gradle-wrapper.properties
├── gradlew
├── gradlew.bat
└── src
    └── main
        ├── java
        │   ├── com
        │   │   └── acme
        │   │       └── sample
        │   │           └── Launcher.java
        │   └── module-info.java
        └── resources
            └── com
                └── acme
                    └── sample
                        └── text.txt
