Chime SDK not available in some regions


I'm developing an integration between Aws Chime SDK and a Ruby on Rails web application, using the official aws ruby client. First of all, I try to create a Aws::ChimeSDKMeetings::Client passing my credentials and a valid aws region like "eu-south-1" to the constructor. However when I try to call a method like create_meeting on the created object, the method fails with Seahorse::Client::NetworkingError (Failed to open TCP connection to meetings-chime.eu-south-1.amazonaws.com:443 (getaddrinfo: Name or service not known)), even if the region I provided is listed as an available media region. If I try to change the region with which I create the client object to "us-east-1", it works properly. I made some attempts and I found that the client works only if it is created within "us-east-1" or "us-west-2" as ragion.

Can someone tell me why it doesn't work with other regions? As long as I searched, I found nothing about it in the official Aws documentation.
