Implementing mqtt pub/sub in simulink

I'm attempting to publish to an external broker from within simulink, and then subscribe to a different topic from within simulink and act upon it. I'm using the mqtt library provided to do so.
So the easy one is the publish model. Inside a matlab function I create a connection then publish at will whenever the signal comes across:
function myMessage(inputs)
persistent myConnection;
if isempty(myConnection)
myConnection = mqtt('tcp://localhost');
end
%build message
msg_json = jsonencode(msg);
publish(myConnection,'mytopic',msg_json);
The challenging one is the subscribe solution. I'm not sure how to do that appropriately, because essentially it is an asynchronous event coming from an external source. I've tried looking into the callback structure:
function mySubscription()
persistent myConnection;
persistent mySub;
if isempty(myConnection)
myConnection = mqtt('tcp://localhost');
end
if isempty(mySub)
mySub = subscribe(myConnection,'myTopic','Callback',@someCallback);
end
but the function seems to fall out of scope and the callback isn't triggered when everything is running. Also I can't stuff a "while true" loop in the function because it locks up the sim. Also, trying the "read" method for the subscription task is not blocking so it returns immediately. I've seen the thingSpeak toolbox, but I do not have it as part of my license. We also have our own broker, so there's no need to go through some third party website.
My question is how do I implement an asynchronous read from an MQTT based broker from within simulink?
