At first blush, it seems like there's something different
about the scans themselves causing the stall. Which
scanner(s) are you using when launching a scan from
NessusWX? And from the unix client? Also, can you make sure
log_whole_attack is enabled in nessusd.conf (restart it
otherwise), repeat both scans, and then compare the list of
plugins run by each scan? And finally, are there any
interesting lines in nessusd.messages about why the scans
launched from NessusWX stop?

That seems weird.
