Following up on my issue. Turned out to be a gradle misconfiguration: I had my annotated code in a com.android.library module, which apparently has its defaultPublishConfig set to release by default. Which means I selected the wrong build variant in Android Studio. I switched to publishing the debug variant, now it behaves properly. Sorry for the fuss! K
