signalfx.splunk_otel_collector.collector not saving tokens in registry Environment

[Tomasz8603]

When running the collector role as below, Splunk is getting installed but fails to run because the token will be blank in registry's Environment. I am running it on windows.

• name: "Include splunk_otel_collector"
  include_role:
  name: "signalfx.splunk_otel_collector.collector"
  vars:
  splunk_access_token: "{{ access_token }}"
  splunk_hec_token: "{{ hec_token }}"

When I add the tokens manually later I can start the service.

To double check if I do pull the right values I did a test, and the values are fine.
I am pulling the tokens from AWS parameter store so they come in as hashed '***'

test:

• name: copy token to file
  ansible.windows.win_copy:
  content: "{{ access_token }}"
  dest: C:\temp\tokentest.txt

• name: copy token to file
  ansible.windows.win_copy:
  content: "{{ hec_token }}"
  dest: C:\temp\tokentesthec.txt

Ok noticed the parameters are being created with values under
Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Environment
but not here:
Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\splunk-otel-collector
It is the second location where I need to stick in the Tokens.
I am using the defaults so using the latest
Running the gather_facts: true
"ansible_os_family is Windows" // I can see that is the condition switch in the ansible role

What am I missing?
