Because App Preview doesn't support that plugin. Not sure why it would cause a custom debug module to fail, but that method is not fool-proof, there are some things that simply do not work except in a built app, and this may be one of them. If you need to do some debugging with the app, you can always debug the built app with a USB cable and remote CDT.
