Also getting the black preview window.
I just sent a bug report to the Sketch team via their customer support form and included a screen recording along with console log dump of Sketch activity.
Maybe if more people do the same they'll get it ironed out.
Out of curiosity, are you using a VPN while trying to preview your prototype?
Yes! This solved it for me. Disconnecting VPN made preview work.
Tried disconnecting VPN + 100% zoom but no luck here.
I had this problem as well. Setting my zoom level to 100% before running the preview fixed it.
Same here, I've tried David's suggestion to disconnect VPN and zoom to 100% but still see the black screen.
Good news! There's a confirmed fix for this issue coming out in v49.1. I spent a good bit of time with their QA team and the devs have successfully fixed it. Won't be long now.

Anyone else getting a black preview window inside Sketch? I've disabled all plugins but that didn't seem to change anything.
