OK. So why that worked before and it doesn't work now, I don't know. But what
that sounds like to me is that you have only one stunnel process. When you
reproduce the problem, how many stunnel processes are running?

ps | grep stunnel

The advantage of using ProxyCommand in your ssh config is that it starts a
separate stunnel process for each connection, which should avoid this problem.

If you don't usually need stunnel, you can create one two ssh configurations
with different names, one with ProxyCommand and one without, and use whichever
one you need.
