tls.connect error with PKCS#11

Version

16.13.1

Platform

arm9

Subsystem

imx6 with Trusted Platform Module

What steps will reproduce the bug?

The issue happens when

mqtt client reconnects using tls.connect (first connection works fine)
the options given to tls.connect are {'cert': '/path/to/tpmCert.pem', 'privateKeyEngine': '/usr/lib/engines-1.1/pkcs11.so', 'privateKeyIdentifier': 'foo', 'ca': '/path/to/root.ca.pem'}

How often does it reproduce? Is there a required condition?

The initial connection works fine but after ~1 hour, mqtt reconnects to the server using tls.connect again with the same options as for the initial connection.

What is the expected behavior?

The secure connection should be established with the given certificates.

What do you see instead?

Unable to check if already logged in
Login failed
Login to token failed, returning NULL...
PKCS11_get_private_key returned NULL
node:internal/tls/secure-context:196
        context.setEngineKey(privateKeyIdentifier, privateKeyEngine);
                ^
