ListView.setOnItemClickListener not firing when checkbox is altered

I am creating an Android app that has a ListView with each item containing a CheckBox and a TextView. I have finally managed to find out there is a bug with a CheckBox in the ListView that does not allow the setOnItemClickListener to fire, and I have managed to get the method to fire when the TextView is clicked. However, I still want the method to fire when the CheckBox is clicked.

When clicked, I want to change the value in the database to reflect it is checked (or not) so the data is saved. This part should be fine if I can simply get the method to fire when the CheckBox is clicked. According to this site, the CheckBox contains its own OnClickListener that is not allowing mine to fire, but I cannot figure out how to get around this.

The relevant code is below. Please let me know if any more code is needed.

MainActivity: Note that lv is the ListView, ItemEntity is the class that represents a single item in the ListView, and the openHelper and adapter are database objects (no problem with these). This is all inside the onCreate method.

    // Fires if TextView is clicked, but not when the CheckBox is clicked
    lv.setOnItemClickListener(new AdapterView.OnItemClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view, int position, long id) {
            ItemEntity item = (ItemEntity) lv.getItemAtPosition(position);
            Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), item.toString(), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();

            // I want to implement this if the checkbox is clicked, but it won't even enter the outer method
            if (view.getId() == R.id.my_checkbox) {
                CheckBox cb = (CheckBox) findViewById(R.id.my_checkbox);
                item.setChecked(cb.isChecked());
                System.out.println("here " + item.toString());
                openHelper.UpdateData(id, item.isChecked());
                adapter.notifyDataSetChanged();
            }
        }
    });
