Flash CS6: Android debug "unable to connect to the debugger"

I'm using Flash CS6 on a Windows 7 machine. I'm trying to debug on a Nexus 4 (yes, USB debugging is enabled on the device).

When I select "AIR Settings > Deployment > Debug" and publish, the app is installed on my device but it just shows a black screen for awhile, then finally a dialog on my phone appears that says:

Adobe AIR

Unable to connect to the debugger (MyPC.home)

Enter IP address or Hostname:

[text input]

[OK] [Cancel]

Neither IP or hostname seems to connect the debugger.

If I press Cancel I can use the app. I can also deploy the app as "Device release" just fine. I just don't get any debug output in Flash Pro, which makes debugging really hard since I can't see exceptions or trace actions.

I'm basically stuck and unable to debug. Any ideas?

Thanks!
