Using WebSockets Client + WebServer module in the same program causes error "This socket is closed"

Sorry for the delayed response, I was dissecting the code and finding the exact moment where it goes wrong. I seem to have found that as soon as wifi.setAP() is called, it prevents execution of all socket transmissions, even those which are called previous to wifi.setAP().

In the callbacks below, if you halt execution of Setup_AccessPoint() so that wifi.setAP() is never called, the WS.send() functions are successful. However, if Setup_AccessPoint() is called, no previous or subsequent WS.send() calls are successful.

Seems weird that the previous ones don't work either, but the server never receives the data if wifi.setAP() is called.
