Description
I'm able to connect irssi to an IRC server (with SSL) using proxychians-ng (as suggested by irssi). However a few seconds later I get disconnected. I'm using the default proxychains4.conf with just one socks5 proxy added. The same happens when I use a different proxy server or connect to a non SSL IRC server.
-!- Irssi: warning SSL read error: server closed connection unexpectedly
-!- Irssi: Connection lost to chat.freenode.net
$ proxychains irssi
[proxychains] config file found: /etc/proxychains4.conf
[proxychains] preloading /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libproxychains.so.4
[proxychains] DLL init: proxychains-ng 4.13

Research direction
Reproduce the disconnect with proxychains irssi using the default proxychains4.conf and a SOCKS5 proxy, checking both SSL and non-SSL IRC connections. The payload names no source file or test; done would require isolating the cause of the server closing the connection and verifying that the connection remains stable.
