PhoneGap / Cordova 2.4 BarcodeScanner Plugin on Android no results

Question

I have gotten the BarcodeScanner working in PhoneGap 2.4 - Android.

It scans the qrcode fine, but there is no response handed back to the callback in the JavaScript.

I get the following in Eclipse logs:

08-06 00:50:13.910: D/dalvikvm(14608): GC_CONCURRENT freed 21K, 16% free 6889K/8199K, paused 12ms+13ms, total 59ms

08-06 00:50:16.180: D/DroidGap(14608): Resuming the App

And I'm using default JS to trigger the scan, for testing purposes:

var scanCode = function() {
    window.plugins.barcodeScanner.scan(
        function(result) {
        alert("Scanned Code: " + result.text 
                + ". Format: " + result.format
                + ". Cancelled: " + result.cancelled);
    }, function(error) {
        alert("Scan failed: " + error);
    });
}

I was wondering if any of you have heard of this issue before or know where to start looking for the possible causes?

Does it have something to do with the pausing and resuming of the app?

Any other suggestions?
