Estoy tratando de establecer una suscripción Pull de larga duración a un tema de Google Cloud PubSub. Estoy usando un código muy similar al ejemplo dado en la documentaciónaquíes decir:

def receive_messages(project, subscription_name):
    """Receives messages from a pull subscription."""
    subscriber = pubsub_v1.SubscriberClient()
    subscription_path = subscriber.subscription_path(
        project, subscription_name)

    def callback(message):
        print('Received message: {}'.format(message))
        message.ack()

    subscriber.subscribe(subscription_path, callback=callback)

    # The subscriber is non-blocking, so we must keep the main thread from
    # exiting to allow it to process messages in the background.
    print('Listening for messages on {}'.format(subscription_path))
    while True:
        time.sleep(60)

El problema es que a veces recibo el siguiente rastreo:

Exception in thread Consumer helper: consume bidirectional stream:

Vi que esto estaba referenciado enotra pregunta pero aquí estoy preguntando cómo manejarlo correctamente en Python. He intentado ajustar la solicitud en una excepción, pero parece que se ejecuta en segundo plano y no puedo volver a intentarlo en caso de ese error.
