Turns out the problem was the location of my <inertia> tags. The Gazebo tutorial lead me to believe that:

An <inertia> element within each <link> element must be properly specified and configured.

This is, at best, ambiguously worded. The <inertia> tag must not be directly inside your link. I only got it to work after I added an <inertial><inertia ...&gt;<="" inertial=""> tag inside all my links.
