Hello,

thanks a lot!  For the sake of people having the same problem as me, here's 
a complete task that kills connections to all hosts from the current play:

  # this will force Ansible to create new connection(s) so that changes in 
ssh
  # settings will have effect (normally Ansible uses ControlPersist feature 
to
  # reuse one connection for all tasks). Note that the path to the socket 
must
  # be the same as what is configured in ansible.cfg.
- name: kill cached ssh connection
  local_action: >
    shell ssh -O stop {{ hostvars[item].ansible_ssh_host }}
    -o ControlPath=/tmp/ansible-ssh-{{ hostvars[item].ansible_ssh_user }}-{{ 
hostvars[item].ansible_ssh_host }}-{{ hostvars[item].ansible_ssh_port }}
  run_once: yes
  register: socket_removal
  failed_when: >
    socket_removal|failed
    and "No such file or directory" not in socket_removal.stderr
  with_items: "{{ play_hosts }}"

If you have any further suggestions, let me know!

best,
Jan
