I am having trouble using childBrowser and openExternal with Phonegap 1.1.0

When I use:

window.plugins.childBrowser.openExternal('http://www.google.com', true);

The childbrowser pops up, but it is just a black screen.

I can use

window.plugins.childBrowser.showWebPage("http://www.google.com");

and that works fine.

I have double checked my plugins.xml, AndroidManifest.xml, etc. I have also tested on a G2 and Droid 2 with the same results.

Is there something else I need to add to allow the openExternal with phonegap=true to work?
