Persistent Channel error (potential timeout issue) while performing a "PublishAsync" or "RespondAsync" but not limited to these

So i have created a simple worker service (.Net 7), which has the following code snippet.

rabbitMqBus = RabbitHutch.CreateBus("host=localhost");

await rabbitMqBus.Rpc.RespondAsync<ConnectToServerRequest, ConnectToServerResponse>(async request => { return new ConnectToServerResponse() { IsSeverConnected = true }; });

This code works absolutely fine on my laptop (dev machine), however, whenever i run it as a service or using a cmd on a deployment machine, i get the following error. Im not sure if im supposed to configure something before installing as a service (both RabbitMQ and the service is on the same machine, RabbitMQ Service is running. Also “RabbitMQ Webinterface “localhost:15672” does work properly on the deployment machine”)

I get the same error when i manually stop the RabbitMQ Service on my dev machine. (while trying to reproduce)

Following in the error, there is no cancellation token passed, i think it is a TimeOut error.
