I've seen some weirdness on windows update with ansible before and usually use a register (test with a debug to see the return values) and do a retry every 60-90s 10x with an until: statement based on the register returning found_update_count: 0 or something of that nature. I don't have an exact copy of whatever it was that was working anywhere to share at the moment, but if you play around with some of the return values, I'm sure you can find a method to achieve a successful outcome.
