Android: DeadObjectException for InputMethodService (SoftKeyboard API sample)

I'm playing around with a modified version of the SoftKeyboard sample and "sometimes" get a DeadObjectException when using the fullscreen mode (e.g. when orientation == landscape). I can still enter text, but the ExtractEditText doesn't update and I get the logcat output below, whenever I hit a new key.

When I switch to portrait (no fullscreen mode) I can see the entered characters. When I then go back to landscape (fullscreen mode) the ExtractEditText is updated with the characters. However, when I then try to enter new character the problem repeats.

Also, when in fullscreen mode and I change the cursor position it does change it in the ExtractEditText but doesn't really change the position for my InputConnection. I believe this problem/bug is already in the SoftKeyboard API sample, since I didn't modify anything related to that, however, so far I wasn't able to figure out where.

Maybe someone can point me in the right direction?
