RunCommand hangs when run agains a cisco SX20 #307

I am trying to use SSH.Net to run a command on a cisco SX20. I am able to connect to the endpoint but when it hits the RunCommand line the app freezes. I am able to use PuTTy to run the same command without issue. Any idea where I might be going wrong?

I have been at this for days trying different variations of code but they all seem to hang at the same place, either on RunCommand or .Execute. Here is what I currently have

`private void btnCheck_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
var pass = Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes("mypassword");

    KeyboardInteractiveAuthenticationMethod kauth = new KeyboardInteractiveAuthenticationMethod("myuser");
    kauth.AuthenticationPrompt += new EventHandler<Renci.SshNet.Common.AuthenticationPromptEventArgs>(HandleKeyEvent);

    ConnectionInfo conInfo = new ConnectionInfo("myip", 22, "myuser", kauth);
    using (var client = new SshClient(conInfo))
    {
        try
        {
            client.Connect();
            if (client.IsConnected)
            {
                SshCommand sshCommand = client.RunCommand("xStatus SystemUnit Uptime");
                lblUptime.Text = sshCommand.Result;
                client.Disconnect();
            }
        }
        catch (Exception error)
        {
            string Error = error.Message.ToString();
        }
    }
}`
