SOCKS proxy issues post v0.13.19 #1899

I know there's are similar issues that are either currently open or closed but this is an issue that was previously working.

I'm sitting behind a SOCKS proxy and I was hoping to register with the signal-cli client.
On version v0.13.19, this wasn't an issue as setting the proper Java options allowed me to not only register but receive messages:
JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS="-DsocksProxyHost=[...] -DsocksProxyPort=[...]"

However, ever since I updated the tool to version v0.13.22, I started running into the the following error message:

Error while checking account [...]: Connection terminated unexpectedly
java.net.SocketException: Connection terminated unexpectedly

I tried to downgrade the version of signal-cli and this issue seemed to have started occurring starting from v0.13.20.
Comparing versions v0.13.19 and v0.13.20, the version of libsignal-client was updated to 0.81.0, which includes the following commit. However, I'm not sure what the actually root cause is.

Any help would be appreciated.
