Thanks for reporting the issue. Unfortunately we never used this role in such a scenario, so we lack a test.

If you have a second please investigate why the bridge-utils were not installed.

I'm using this against a Raspberry Pi 3 running raspbian. Everything works correctly if I update ensure basic networking tools are installed to also install bridge-utils.
