ssh.config through ansible.cfg behaves differently then ssh.config direct

Hi,

My ssh.config

Host bastion
User ansible
HostName bastion-server
ProxyCommand none
IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_rsa
BatchMode yes
PasswordAuthentication no

Host *
ServerAliveInterval 60
TCPKeepAlive yes
ProxyCommand ssh -q -A root@bastion nc %h %p
ControlMaster auto
ControlPath ~/.ssh/mux-%r@%h:%p
ControlPersist 8h
User root
StrictHostKeyChecking no

My ansible.cfg

[default]
hash_behaviour=merge
transport=ssh

[ssh_connection]
ssh_args = -o ControlPersist=15m -F ssh.config -q
scp_if_ssh = True
control_path = ~/.ssh/mux-%%r@%%h:%%p

When I run ssh bastion -F ssh.config I can connect with success.

When I run ansible -i ./ meta_Pool_wearezoneeu -m setup -vvvv it gives following error:

ERROR! ERROR! ./ssh.config:1: Expected key=value host variable assignment, got: bastion

No idea why this happens. Anyone experienced a similar thing or can point me into the right direction?
