One possibility is that the ssl handshake genuinely takes too long (>5 
seconds). When you ran...

...how long did it take for the handshake to complete?

Also, at the risk of stating the obvious, did you check that your client 
is correctly configured to trust the self-signed cert? I am asking 
because the certificate below...

was issued on 22nd October.

So the fact that your client stopped working then is probably not a 
coincidence.
