I found a test case for this.  Modify your local openconnect tree as
follows, then just start pinging over the ocserv connection:

-- 8< --

diff --git a/cstp.c b/cstp.c
index 0980095..7e5e9e0 100644

     }

+    if (time(NULL) % 20 == 0)
+        goto do_reconnect;
+
     switch (keepalive_action(&vpninfo->ssl_times, timeout)) {
     case KA_REKEY:
     do_rekey:

FWIW, I'm building openconnect against OpenSSL on this machine, and
the DTLS traffic dies immediately on the first CSTP reconnect.

I will include this fix in V9 of my patch series:
