template is ignoring variables from defaults/main.yml

MacOS 10.10.5, ansible 1.9.2:

Error:

TASK: [elasticsearch | Copy elasticseach.yml] *********************************
fatal: [consumer-jail-19.acc] => {'msg': "AnsibleUndefinedVariable: One or more undefined variables: 'es_cluster_name' is undefined", 'failed': True}
fatal: [consumer-jail-19.acc] => {'msg': "AnsibleUndefinedVariable: One or more undefined variables: 'es_cluster_name' is undefined", 'failed': True}

FATAL: all hosts have already failed -- aborting

defaults/main.yml:

---
# ES ClusterName
es_cluster_name: 'bi_elasticsearch'

templates/elasticsearch.yml.j2:

cluster.name: {{es_cluster_name}}

tasks/main.yml:

- name: Copy elasticseach.yml
  template: src=elasticsearch.yml.j2 dest=/usr/local/etc/elasticsearch/elasticsearch.yml

Removing the single quotes in "defaults/main.yml" did the trick. However, it seems odd that single quotes are breaking this.

Just tested this with current stable-1.9 and was unable to reproduce so this seems to be fixed. Going to close it.
