iOS Facebook Share Dialog never works the first time

For some reason, my Facebook share dialog never works the first time—the dialog window opens up and then disappears, and I get the following error:

Error Domain=NSURLErrorDomain Code=-999 "The operation couldn’t be completed. (NSURLErrorDomain error -999.)"

The URL that is failing with the error is a standard dialog URL, and if I paste it in my web browser, it displays the share dialog. I'm not doing anything special, just calling:

[_facebook dialog:@"feed" andParams:params andDelegate:self];

When I call that method again, it works perfectly.

Anyone else running into this? This is on iOS 5, and I'm using the newest version of the SDK.

Duplicate of First dialog after authenticating fails immediately and closes dialog

Short answer, this seems to have appeared in iOS 5. There are a couple sort of nasty workarounds. Good luck!
