Sharing data between binance twisted.internet websocket and asyncio thread - python-3.x

Question

I am using the following libraries:
from binance.websockets import BinanceSocketManager
from twisted.internet import reactor
To create a websocket to fetch data from an API (Binance API) and print the price of bitcoin in 1s intervals:
conn_key = bsm.start_symbol_ticker_socket('BTCUSDT', asset_price_stream)
Every time there is a new update, the function asset_price_stream is executed, with the new data as parameter. This works (I can, for example, simply print the data to the console in asset_price_stream).
Now, I want to share this data with an asyncio function. At the moment, I am using a janus queue for this.
In asset_price_stream:
price_update_queue_object.queue.sync_q.put_nowait({msg['s']: msg['a']})
and in the asynchronous thread:
async def price_updater(update_queue):
while True:
priceupdate = await update_queue.async_q.get()
print(priceupdate)
update_queue.async_q.task_done()
I am using the sync_q interface in asset_price_stream and the async_q interface in the asyncio function. If I use the async_q interface also in asset_price_stream, I get an error:
Unhandled Error

When using sync_q, it works so far. The async thread can print the price updates. But sometimes, it simply gets stuck and I don't know why. The API is still delivering data (as I have double checked) but it stops to arrive at the async thread through the queue. I have no idea why this happens, and it is not always reproducible (I can run the same code without modifications 5 times in a row, four times it works, and once it doesn't). The interesting thing is: as soon as i press CTRL-C to abort the program, the data immediately arrives at the queue when it didn't before! (In the few seconds while the program is waiting to shut all asyncio threads down) So I have the feeling that something with the sync-async-queue communication is wrong/concurrent with something else that is aborted when I press CTRL-C.
So my question is: How can I improve that procedure? Is there a better way to send data to an asyncio thread from a twisted.internet websocket than janus.Queue() ? I tried some different things (accessing a global object for example, but I cannot access an asyncio.lock() from the asset_price_stream as it is not an async function... so it would not be thread safe).
