With the following I am trying to connect to my Rabbit instance using the pika AsyncioConnection adapter

import asyncio

import pika
from pika.adapters.asyncio_connection import AsyncioConnection


async def start_consuming():
    channel = AsyncioConnection(
        parameters=pika.URLParameters(AMQP_URL),
    )
    channel.ioloop.run_forever()


async def main():
    await asyncio.gather(start_consuming())


if __name__ == '__main__':
    asyncio.run(main())

Once the code hits the line when channel.ioloop.run_forever() is invoked it prints this error:

  File "/Users/asant/.pyenv/versions/3.12.2/lib/python3.12/asyncio/runners.py", line 194, in run
