I managed to solve the problem. For some reason (build related or my own doing some time earlier), there was a broken symlink to the executable file inside my src folder. Once I deleted that, the launch file started working fine. I guess the important take-away here is that when you launch a node from a launch file, it does actually look inside your src folder for the executable before moving onto the devel/lib folder.
