I am curious if there was follow-up to this.  I am seeing something similar 
for a customer I am working on.


   - If I put all my variables under group_vars/all (where all is a flat 
   file in yml syntax) it works fine.
   - If I move one device out of group_vars/all to group_vars/leaf/leaf01 
   all devices work great.  (where leaf corresponds to a group within my 
   Ansible hosts file).
   - As soon as I do group_vars/leaf/leaf01 and leaf02 it can't find leaf01 
   anymore.  leaf02 will work but not leaf01.  (where leaf01 and leaf02 are 
   hosts in my ansible hosts file both in the group leaf)

Do they have to end with .yml?  Is this not how group_vars works?  Just 
trying to make folders to break up variables for simplification. 
(I am running on Ansible 2.1.1)
