Dear Lynn Dixon, This is a known issue where Microsoft's sysprep tool is only supporting the Unattend.xml file name whereas Windows setup is mainly supporting the Autounattend.xml file format which is inconsistent, but by design.
One workaround is to add the following to the configuration after the product key setting in your example: os.windows_2016x64.sysprepFileName.value = Autounattend.xml Then the installation will work, but afterwards you will need to remove this line if you want the sysprep oobe to work. I hope this helps. With Best Regards. Steven Rosenberg.
