The issue was the setting of sudo_user, as you described. I had set it in 
ansible.cfg and then was adding/removing in the playbook during 
troubleshooting.  With sudo_user set to the default or 'root' in 
ansible.cfg, 'sudo: True' operations are behaving as expected. 
Thanks for leading me in the correct direction.
