Ansible aoscx_vlan_interface ip_helper_address

[henricGulle]

I have stept on a problem with role: aoscx_vlan_interface, i can create ip_helper_address when i create a new interface but if I run the playbook again with no changes i get an error:

"module_stderr": "Traceback (most recent call last):\n File "/home/"username"/.ansible/tmp/ansible-local-10100662syh8zv/ansible-tmp-1610035043.3729682-101629-68525387063625/AnsiballZ_aoscx_vlan_interface.py", line 102, in \n _ansiballz_main()\n File "/home/"username"/.ansible/tmp/ansible-local-10100662syh8zv/ansible-tmp-1610035043.3729682-101629-68525387063625/AnsiballZ_aoscx_vlan_interface.py", line 94, in _ansiballz_main\n invoke_module(zipped_mod, temp_path, ANSIBALLZ_PARAMS)\n File "/home/"username"/.ansible/tmp/ansible-local-10100662syh8zv/ansible-tmp-1610035043.3729682-101629-68525387063625/AnsiballZ_aoscx_vlan_interface.py", line 40, in invoke_module\n runpy.run_module(mod_name='ansible.modules.aoscx_vlan_interface', init_globals=None, run_name='main', alter_sys=True)\n File "/usr/lib/python2.7/runpy.py", line 188, in run_module\n fname, loader, pkg_name)\n File "/usr/lib/python2.7/runpy.py", line 82, in _run_module_code\n mod_name, mod_fname, mod_loader, pkg_name)\n File "/usr/lib/python2.7/runpy.py", line 72, in _run_code\n exec code in run_globals\n File "/tmp/ansible_aoscx_vlan_interface_payload_O7kWjR/ansible_aoscx_vlan_interface_payload.zip/ansible/modules/aoscx_vlan_interface.py", line 253, in \n File "/tmp/ansible_aoscx_vlan_interface_payload_O7kWjR/ansible_aoscx_vlan_interface_payload.zip/ansible/modules/aoscx_vlan_interface.py", line 206, in main\nUnboundLocalError: local variable 'port_fields' referenced before assignment\n",

If i change state from update to create i get the following error insted on all vlan interfaces:

Has it someting to do with that IP helper needs a vrf to points to?

From manual config:
ip helper-address 10.40.20.2 vrf default
