I'm not sure if what you've provided here, is your entire script. But I think you're going to need to somehow manage the input stream. Which I believe is why you're seeing the error you are. I don't have an example. But I see the pod for Net::SSH::Expect provides quite a few of them. Maybe one of them will get you where you want to be. :)
