- Host: FreeBSD 11.0
- Ansible: 2.3.0

I'm using ansible since version 2.1, and with all the 'become' changes I
finally had found a way to install a few things with 'su' method. I'm using the
'su' method because I need to install just a few packages and files on freshly
installed servers.

With version 2.2.1, the su password was well sent to each server, but with
2.3.0, nothing happens and the 'su' command on the remote server hangs forever.

my site.yml:
```
- hosts: all
  become: yes
  become_method: su
  become_user: root
  gather_facts: False
  vars:
    ansible_python_interpreter: "/usr/local/bin/python"

  tasks:
  - name: Install python with raw as ansible relies on it for most commands
except raw
    raw: pkg install -fy python
```

my ansible.cfg:
```
[defaults]
transport = paramiko
become_ask_pass = True
host_key_checking = False

[ssh_connection]
ssh_args=-o ForwardAgent=yes
```

the anible command I'm using:
```
ansible-playbook -i ./hosts -u remoteuser -k -K site.yml
```

Works well with 2.2.1.
Does not work with 2.3.0.
