AirVPN client can't connect with Tor

[joantherevelator 3]

I'm using the AirVPN Linux client. I've followed the how-to for running AirVPN through Tor, which is:
- start the Tor browser bundle

- open AirVPN preferences and in "protocols" tab select "Tor" (if I run "test" here I get the error "515 Authentication failed. Password did not match HashedControlPassword *or* authentication cookie")

- attempt to connect.

 

Connection fails, and the last two lines of the error log show:

 - TOR Control authentication method: Cookie, from /var/run/tor/control.authcookie
 - Unable to communicate with TOR (Unable to find IP address of TOR first node of an established circuit.). Is TOR up and running?
 

Yes, Tor is up and running. Any other ideas? Seems to be a problem with the cookie authentication but I'm not sure how to fix it.
