EndpointConnectionError with XRay daemon in ECS tasks

I've created an ECS Service with a task definition that contains two containers. The first is the xray-daemon, and the second is my application (Python, Flask). The task starts fine; however, the application container gives me the following error in the logs.

botocore.exceptions.EndpointConnectionError: Could not connect to the endpoint URL: "http://127.0.0.1:2000/GetSamplingRules"

I've tried to do a port mapping on the xray-daemon container to 2000/tcp and followed the documentation to link the two containers specified here.

Any suggestions/thoughts on how to fix this?

Below is my task definition:
