Random app crashes on Android Wear 5.0.X

I have a question regarding the newest Android Wear release (5.0.2):

Debugging apps with that version really is a pain because very often the apps crash directly on startup (or soon after that). It doesn't matter how complex / simple the launched activity is. Launching an activity via voice command increases the chance of a crash.

Every time an app crashes you can find these lines in the log (edit: added logging to the activity lifecycle methods):

Does anyone know a solution / workaround for this bug?

Thanks in advance

The bug was fixed in Android Wear 5.1.1.
