If anyone else is still having this problem, I found this related issue on the IntelliJ board: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-157303

It seems the problem is related to resolving hostnames. The recommended workaround is to include the following line in your /etc/hosts file:

127.0.0.1       localhost     .local

And for IPv6 resolving, the same:

::1             localhost     .local
