We encountered this exactly same problem this night. We've also called AWS and they gave us the same answer: everything looks fine on your instance.
We have several applications using this same database, they all worked fined except one. So It really looks like a problem in either mysql2 or unicorn. Did you manage to find an explanation? And maybe a solution? For the moment we have just restarted the application and everything is back to normal.
