MQTT Connection time out exception when using Cognito Credentials.

See original GitHub issue

I tried to connect to the AWS IoT MQTT with credentials fetched through a cognito identity and the following exception is received.

Connect timed out
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:/Users/Software/Desktop/Test folder for Kivy/mqtt with cognito.py", line 161, in <module>
    myAWSIoTMQTTClient.connect()
  File "C:\Users\Software\Desktop\Test folder for Kivy\venv\lib\site-packages\AWSIoTPythonSDK\MQTTLib.py", line 513, in connect
    return self._mqtt_core.connect(keepAliveIntervalSecond)
  File "C:\Users\Software\Desktop\Test folder for Kivy\venv\lib\site-packages\AWSIoTPythonSDK\core\protocol\mqtt_core.py", line 199, in connect
    raise connectTimeoutException()
AWSIoTPythonSDK.exception.AWSIoTExceptions.connectTimeoutException

Process finished with exit code 1

The same code is working when a normal IAM credential is used to connect to the MQTT service. The policies attached for the Cognito identity and IAM credential are the same(AWSIoTFullAccess).
