 ## [Unreleased]
 
+### Changed
+
+- Pipecat 0.0.69 forced `uvloop` event loop on Linux on macOS. Unfortunately,
+  this is causing issue in some systems. So, `uvloop` is not enabled by default
+  anymore. If you want to use `uvloop` you can just set the `asyncio` event
+  policy before starting your agent with:
+
+```python
+asyncio.set_event_loop_policy(uvloop.EventLoopPolicy())
+```
+
 ### Fixed
 
 - Fixed an issue where `OutputAudioRawFrame.transport_destination` was being
