Packer 1.3.1 waits indefinitely for AMI to be ready despite console indicating that it is ready

This issue was originally opened by @res0nance as hashicorp/packer#6765. It was migrated here as a result of the Packer plugin split. The original body of the issue is below.

Running packer on a linux machine to create a windows ami gives the following log

Packer waits forever instead of erroring out but when AWS console is checked the AMI packer is waiting for is available. This issue is also sometimes seen when the copy is being made for encrypted boot.

I'm running into this with packer 1.8.1 inconsistently. Have verified the AWS console indicates the AMI status is "available", but packer's last log is "amazon-ebs: Waiting for AMI to become ready..."
