Even I encountered a similar problem, the console used to display the file, but the browser did not automatically update. Later, I discovered a missing closing tag on my index.html page, which prevented ion injection below the script needed for a live reload.
<script src="//localhost:35729/livereload.js?snipver=1"></script>
Check for typos or other html problems on the index.html page and fix them. A live reboot should correctly follow it.
