I have a OpenVPN 2.4.9 server where multiple clients need to connect to, but right now no client can connect. I get the following error, filtered for one specific client:

About 60s after "TLS: Initial packet from" it all starts again.
For me, it looks like some kind of timeout, what is the client expecting? And why does it not get the expected return?
Because of timeouts, I have already set:
reneg-sec 3600
ping 120
ping-restart 120
