Why cant I profile using vsperfmon by attaching to dllhost.exe?

I have a native C++ project that uses COM to communicate with a separate project in VB.NET. I have been able to successfully profile the native project in the past by attaching the project to a separate exe that references the native dll. I'm now trying to profile the native project by connecting to dllhost.exe. This configuration works, since I'm able to debug through dllhost, but if I try and profile the code (or just attach the profiler to dllhost while I'm debugging), the profiler stops and I get the following output:


PRF0010: Launch Aborted - Unable to start vsperfmon.exe
Error VSP1712: Invalid File: C:...MyProj110609.vsp
PRF0025: No data was collected.



I know the profiler works since I can get results using a different configuration. I also know the debug configuration works. Any idea on what's going wrong?
