Issues with aruba_command module when running against Mobility Conductor

SUMMARY

Issues with aruba_command module when running against Mobility Conductor. I can run the CLI commands against a Managed Device (Aruba Gateways) running version 8.10.0.6 but unable to do so on the Mobility Conductor. I get the following error "Unable to decode JSON from response to exec_command({"command": "show version", "prompt": null, "answer": null}). Received 'None'."
