Packer 1.3.1 waits indefinitely for AMI to be ready despite console indicating that it is ready

Running packer on a linux machine to create a windows ami gives the following log

Packer waits forever instead of erroring out but when AWS console is checked the AMI packer is waiting for is available.
This issue is also sometimes seen when the copy is being made for encrypted boot.
