Hi Everyone,

I recently installed a new Ansible host (Ubuntu Xenial, upgrading ansible 
from 1.9.4 to 2.0.0.2 in the process) and I can't get the new host to use 
the `ansible_become_pass` variable.

My plays always start by importing an ansible-vault encrypted file in which 
`ansible_become_pass` is defined. I can see the variable is imported 
through `- debug:`.

However, unless I use the -K flag Ansible fails shortly after with:

fatal: [Remote-Computer]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "failed": true, 
"module_stderr": "", "module_stdout": "sudo: a password is required\r\n", 
"msg": "MODULE FAILURE", "parsed": false}

Passing the sudo password using -K works fine. The plays also still work 
fine on my 1.9.4 install.

Running the command as -vvvv:

I can confirm ssh'ing into Remote-Computer and running only `sudo -H -S -n 
-u root /bin/sh -c` returns the "sudo: a password is required" message.

I've tried adding `ansible_become_method` and `ansible_become_user` as well.

Any assistance would be much appreciated.
