Comment (by rl1987):

 Lets investigate this a bit further. How is your SOCKSPort configured? Do
 you use any flags for process isolation? Can you still try torsocks with
 `-d` and show us what it prints? For example, you could run `torsocks
 --port 9050 -u fox -p trustno1 wget https://www.google.com`.
