Ansible Python API - playbook execution hangs with defunct process

I am using programmable python Ansible APIs to execute a playbook on Cisco Switches. I see that the playbook is hanging while executing a some commands on Cisco. The commands succeed as expected, but Ansible hangs and never comes out. I see the child forked by Ansible as "defunct". It appears to be a Ansible bug based on my googling. Anyone ran into this issue and what is the way out. Its pretty consistent and it hits this issue exactly at the same point in the playbook.
