Any way to process mixed Apache and JSON format data

We have some apps that mix apache log and json data in the same log file. Is there a way to extract both data types, and still successfully format the json? We have "INDEXED_EXTRACTIONS = json, KV_MODE = none" in the props.conf file (splunkforwarder-6.4.2), and the apache log lines are ignored. I was under the impression KV_MODE=none would not ignore them. I thought the way we have this set up was supposed to do what I want: Properly format json lines and just ingest other lines without indexing?
