I don't use Xpra to know its intricacies, but the error message is giving you 
a hint.  Some quick things to check for:

Is there a listening port on the server box as you have specified?

Is Xpra running on the server?

Are you binding the correct address, or all addresses, e.g.:

xpra start --bind-ssh=0.0.0.0:22222 --start=some_app

Can the user running the Xpra server access the private key?  You can set 
IdentityFile, or make sure the user can access ~/.ssh/.

Is there a firewall blocking access?

And finally, increase verbosity and then check what the logs reveal on both 
ends of the connection, other than the no response message you posted.

HTH.
