Still didn't work for me, after setting up the -HE flag and become: false for the task that required the agent.

For me setting an explicit --ssh-extra-args '-o UserKnownHostsFile=/dev/null' for the ansible-playbook invocation solved the issue. Thanks to this SO answer https://stackoverflow.com/a/23704069
