I don't know how OpenLDAP works internally. Does it still log about
ldap_start_tls_s() failing? Try if increasing OpenLDAP's logging in
dovecot-ldap.conf.ext works:

# LDAP library debug level as specified by LDAP_DEBUG_* in ldap_log.h.
# -1 = everything. You may need to recompile OpenLDAP with debugging enabled
# to get enough output.
#debug_level = 0

Also make sure that the auth and auth-worker processes have the same
permissions:

doveconf service/auth > a
doveconf service/auth-worker > b
diff -u a b
