This looks like a completely different problem to me.  You're
establishing a connection which means 'sshd' has successfully
started.  What happens if you just wait for 'ssh'?  Does it time
out?  You may need to start your 'sshd' in debug mode to see
what's happening on the server side to decipher this.
