This probably has nothing to do with SSH. When you open a VPN connection,
it will normally alter your default route to send all non-local traffic
over the tunnel to the remote network. So existing TCP connections to
other external destinations are likely to become unusable for a variety of
reasons. Even if the peer is reachable via the new route through the VPN
network, NAT/firewall/addressing restrictions may prevent your packets
from getting there, or from being recognized if they do.
You can fix this on a case-by-case basis by installing a route to the peer
following the original path, after you bring up the VPN.
