Tasks using become with with_items failed with Timeout (12s) waiting for privilege escalation prompt whenever a single command took longer than 12 seconds, even though the same playbook worked against other hosts. Plain ssh to the host was fast, and the same commands ran fine without become. The failure is the become timeout, not the task itself.
