Wireshark decodes protocols based on their port numbers.  It does not
attempt to guess the protocol type.  Whenever you use SSL on a non-standard
port, you need to manually reconfigure Wireshark.  On Windows just
right-click on a packet and select "Decode As" to configure non-standard
port as an SSL-based service.
