I've never seen this error prevent someone from logging in properly. Immediately following this error you should be seeing a 'remove previous login' gateway-logout immediately followed by a gateway-login for the host-id. Effectively the firewall is simply clearing the stale session that wasn't properly shutdown and re-building a new session for the host-id.
Are you saying that you've looked at logging and you aren't seeing it remove the previous login and forming a new connection?
