Import matlab.engine error

In Matlab script I am trying to create a Python object that holds reference to the Matlab session. To do that I am passing shared engine name to Python object constructor and trying to find matlab instance using matlab.engine library. During library importing Python raises an exception:
>> py.importlib.import_module('task_monitor')
Error using enginesession>__init__ (line 8)
Python Error: EngineError: MATLAB process session cannot be initialized.
Error in __init__><module> (line 80)
_session = EngineSession()
Error in task_monitor><module> (line 1)
import matlab.engine
Error in __init__>import_module (line 37)
__import__(name)
Python class definition
import matlab.engine
class TaskMonitor:
def __init__(self, matlabName):
try:
self.matlabEngine = matlab.engine.connect_matlab(matlabName)
except matlab.engine.EngineError as err:
print('Could not connect to Matlab: ' + str(err))
Matlab script creating Python object
function init()
if ~matlab.engine.isEngineShared
matlab.engine.shareEngine;
end
sessionName = matlab.engine.engineName;
global monitor;
monitor = py.task_monitor.TaskMonitor(sessionName);
end
When I try to instantiate TaskMonitor in Python's console everything's fine and the object s being created. Is it somehow different while creating it from within Matlab console?
Looks like importing matlab.engine in Python script that's run from within Matlab is not working well.

The issue was also reported in that question:

I'm not sure about a safe workaround, but something that seems to work is removing the _session = EngineSession() line and corresponding cleanup line in the matlab.engine init script. Not sure how safe this is, but it seems to work.
