It's still not working. I even made the pause 10 seconds (see below). SSH 
still doesn't work
until maybe 30 seconds later. I'm launching an m3large instance and I'm only
using the Amazon Linux base (no customization).  AMI: ami-7c807d14

Any ideas?

    - name: Tie elastic IP to the instance 
      ec2_eip: instance_id={{ item }} region={{ region }} public_ip={{ 
my_elastic_ip }} 
      with_items: ec2_info.instance_ids 

    - name: wait for instances to listen on port:22  
      wait_for: timeout=480 state=started host={{ my_elastic_ip }} port=22 

    - pause: seconds=10
