I was having the same issue.

I'm using the same playbook as the stackoverflow link you provided, the 
only thing I updated from it to make it work for me was moving the task 
that writes "/root/.my.cnf" before the task that updates the root password 
for all accounts.

This is how my playbook looks like...

- name: ensure mysql is running and starts on boot
  service: name=mysql state=started enabled=true

- name: copy .my.cnf file with root password credentials
  template: src=root-my-cnf.j2 dest=/root/.my.cnf owner=root mode=0600

# 'localhost' needs to be the last item for idempotency, see
# http://ansible.cc/docs/modules.html#mysql-user
- name: update mysql root password for all root accounts
  mysql_user: name=root host={{ item }} password={{ mysql_root_password }} 
priv=*.*:ALL,GRANT
  with_items:
    - "{{ ansible_hostname }}"
    - 127.0.0.1
    - ::1
    - localhost

- name: ensure anonymous users are not in the database
  mysql_user: name='' host={{ item }} state=absent
  with_items:
    - "{{ ansible_hostname }}"
    - 127.0.0.1
    - ::1
    - localhost

- name: remove the test database
  mysql_db: name=test state=absent
