According to the source, the nessus daemon is not responding to your
initial protocol handshake then.  That is, after the SSL connection is
established, the client sends "< NTP/1.2 >"; the server is supposed to
respond with the same but isn't.

If you don't see anything in the Nessus logs, you might try connecting
manually to the daemon and seeing how it responds.  One way would be
using openssl (eg, "openssl s_client -connect yourhost:1241 -ssl3");
another would be to roll your own NASL script.
