android – Running app fails with error 'com.android.builder.dexing.DexArchiveMergerException: Unable to merge dex' – Facebook api

I am trying to run my application on my phone but during build time it fails with the following error:

Execution failed for task ':app:transformDexArchiveWithExternalLibsDexMergerForDebug'.

java.lang.RuntimeException: java.lang.RuntimeException: com.android.builder.dexing.DexArchiveMergerException: Unable to merge dex

What I tried so far, but to no avail:
-> Clean and rebuild (fails on rebuild)
-> Remove ./gradle file and all project build and cache files, then cache invalidation

My project gradle file:

// Top-level build file where you can add configuration options common to all sub-projects/modules.

buildscript {
    ext.kotlin_version = '1.1.51'
    repositories {
        jcenter()
        google()
        mavenCentral()
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.0.0-beta6'

        // NOTE: Do not place your application dependencies here; they belong
        // in the individual module build.gradle files
        classpath "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-gradle-plugin:$kotlin_version"
    }
}

allprojects {
    repositories {
        jcenter()
        google()
        mavenCentral()
    }
}

I am using Kotlin and Android Studio 3.0.0 beta 6. What is the problem?
