Executing requests causes Connection refused: /127.0.0.1:5037 #121

Describe the bug
Hi, I'm trying to query adb devices, pair and connect to them, but I'm having troubles even with the first part. Any request I execute ends in io.netty.channel.AbstractChannel$AnnotatedConnectException: Connection refused: /127.0.0.1:5037 exception. This happens both on an emulator and a real device (both connected and disconnected from adb).

To Reproduce
I'm using following code similar to the example provided in docs.

StartAdbInteractor().execute()
val adb = AndroidDebugBridgeClientFactory().build()
val devices = adb.execute(request = ListDevicesRequest())

Log.d(TAG, "devices: $devices")

the same happens when running FetchDeviceFeaturesRequest. I tried changing the port with serverPort argument of StartAdbInteractor().execute() to 5038 and providing device serial to the feature request manually - none of those changed the behavior.

Expected behavior
No connection error would be thrown. Devices and features requests would run properly.

Screenshots
