"InterfaceError: connection already closed" being raised when a test is run

Hello,

First off, congratulations on this awesome app. I am using Python 2.7, Django 1.9 and Postgresql 9.3.

Settings dict for django-q is as follows:

Q_CLUSTER = {
    'name': 'pulsecheck',
    'workers': 2,
    'recycle': 500,
    'compress': True,
    'save_limit': 250,
    'label': 'Task Management',
    'redis': {
        'host': '127.0.0.1',
        'port': 6379,
        'db': 0, }
}

This is what I have in tests.py:

Conf.SYNC = True

...

def test_stuff(self):
    ...
    async('some_stuff', var1, var2)
    ...
    assert ...

When tests are run, this is what I get:

Creating test database for alias 'default'...
