Also enable credSSP authorization in winrm on the host:
winrm get winrm/config (to see the settings)
winrm set winrm/config/client/auth @{CredSSP="True"} 
or Set-Item -Path WSMan:\localhost\Service\Auth\CredSSP -Value $true

I would also check to make sure nothing else is using the default SSH 
listener (port 5986)  I don't think you want to use unsecure 5985, so you 
should set the ansible vars to 5986 and https.  If that still doesn't work 
maybe try adding ansible_winrm_transport: CredSSP after 
ansible_connection=winrm.
