LocalConnection StatusEvent Error

Question

I'm getting this error intermittently when attempting to call functions in a localconnection.

Error #2044: Unhandled StatusEvent:. level=error, code=

The "handled" output:

LocalConnection.send() failed [StatusEvent type="status" bubbles=false cancelable=false eventPhase=2 code=null level="error"]

Here is the code that sends the info:

package facebook 
{
import flash.events.StatusEvent;
import flash.net.LocalConnection;

public class Leaderboard
{
    private var sendLC:LocalConnection = new LocalConnection();
    public var leaderboardScores:Object;
    public static var LB:Leaderboard;

    public function Leaderboard()
    {
        LB = this;
        sendLC.addEventListener(StatusEvent.STATUS, statusError);
    }
    public function showAbilities():void

            abilityArray.push(player);
        }
        abilityArray.sortOn([3], Array.NUMERIC);
        sendLC.send("_myConnection", "showAbilities", abilityArray);
        showDeaths();
    }
    public function showDeaths():void
    {

            moneyArray.push(player);
        }
        moneyArray.sortOn([3], Array.NUMERIC);
        trace("! ! ! ! ! !SENDING MONEY ! ! ! ! ! !");
        sendLC.send("_myConnection", "showMoney", moneyArray);
        showBuffs();
    }
    public function showBuffs():void
    {
        var buffArray:Array = [];

        }

            killArray.push(player);
        }
        killArray.sortOn([3], Array.NUMERIC);
        sendLC.send("_myConnection", "showKills", killArray);
    }
    private function statusError(e:StatusEvent):void
    {
        switch (e.level) {
            case "status":
                trace( "LocalConnection.send() succeeded");
                break;
            case "error":

And here is the recieving code:

    private var outlineClass:Class;

    private var receiverLC:LocalConnection = new LocalConnection()
    private var background:Bitmap = new outlineClass;

    public function Main():void 
    {
        receiverLC.client = this;
        if (stage) init();
        else addEventListener(Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE, init);
    }

    private function init(e:Event = null):void 
    {

        try

            this.receiverLC.connect("_myConnection");
            trace('!~~~~~LocalConnection SUCCEEDED');
        }

                trace("NAME: " + a[1] + " SCORE: " + a[3]);
        }
        catch (e:Error)
        {
            trace("Error " + e);
        }
    }
    public function showDeaths(scores:Array):void
    {
        trace("DEATHS\n");
        try{

        }
        catch (e:Error)
        {
            trace("Error " + e);
        }
    }
    public function showMoney(scores:Array):void
    {
        trace("MONEY\n");
        try{

        }
        catch (e:Error)

        try{
            for each (var a:Array in scores)
                trace("NAME: " + a[1] + " SCORE: " + a[3]);
        }
        catch (e:Error)
        {
            trace("Error " + e);
        }
    }
    public function showKills(scores:Array):void
    {
        trace("KILLS\n");
        try{
            for each (var a:Array in scores)
                trace("NAME: " + a[1] + " SCORE: " + a[3]);
        }
        catch (e:Error)
        {
            trace("Error " + e);
        }
    }
}   
 }

The searching I've done on the error seems to be of little value. Most people say that declaring the localconnection outside of the function fixed it for them. Can anyone see anything that could cause this error?
