Catching invalid access token exceptions

In the Android Core API v2 SDK, when a Dropbox access token becomes invalid, I want to catch that exception and null out my copy of the access token so the linking authorization will be done again.  ...

InvalidAccessTokenException does get thrown for me when calling listFolder with an invalid access token. (Both catching InvalidAccessTokenException and using instanceof work as expected in my test.)

Can you share your code that reproduces this? What version of the SDK do you have installed?

Also, please print and share the stack trace for the exception you do get. Thanks in advance!
