[Python] Timeout when I try an action with Python subprocess but when I run it manually throw...

I have this function which is trying to restart a genymotion device in python:

def restart_device(d, stop_timeout=40, start_timeout=30):
"""Restarts a specific Genymotion device with timeouts and logs the process."""
try:
device_name = get_device_name_by_ip(d.serial)
logging.info(f"Stopping device: {device_name}")
subprocess.run([gmtoolPath, "admin", "stop", device_name], check=True, timeout=stop_timeout)
time.sleep(5) # Wait a bit before restarting

logging.info(f"Starting device: {device_name}")
subprocess.run([gmtoolPath, "admin", "start", device_name], check=True, timeout=start_timeout)

# Wait for the device to boot up
logging.info(f"Waiting for device {device_name} to boot...")
time.sleep(30) # Adjust the wait time as needed
logging.info(f"Device {device_name} restarted successfully.")
except subprocess.CalledProcessError as e:
logging.error(f"Error restarting device {device_name}: {e.stderr}")
except subprocess.TimeoutExpired as e:
logging.error(f"Timeout expired while restarting device {device_name}: {e}")


When I run the it throw the code its returning timeout but when I run the stop and start commands manually with the termianl its working perfectly.

Also an important note, I have another computer and when I run the exact same code its working fine on it.

Any help will be helpfull
