If I plug my paths into that script it runs fine for me.

Can you write out what you think is going on? I don't understand what you're seeing and without a way to reproduce myself I'm just guessing. (which are the scenarios I outlined above)

When you run it what's the lifetime of the test, the lldb-server on the remote, the test program it's running. That sort of thing.
