unexpected output while executing lengthy commands

[SR]

Have a playbook executes the below command looking for VPN session, and registers the output. When I execute commands which are longer ( here col len > 52 ) , the output gets messed up , as in, it's kind of printing the input as well (have attached the output for reference). Any pointers as in how i can address this ?

  - name: Check for VPN session
    asa_command:
      commands:
          - show vpn-sessiondb svc filter name {{username}}

          - show vpn-sessiondb webvpn filter name {{username}}

          - show vpn-sessiondb anyconnect filter name {{username}}

    register: session_status

Output when the executed command is long [ the managed host too has a longhostname ]

TASK [debug] **************************************************************************************************************************************************************************
ok: [loooooonghostname] => {
    "msg": [
        [
            "INFO: There are presently no active sessions of the type specified"
        ],
        [
            "INFO: There are presently no active sessions of the type specified"
        ],

        [
            "show vpn-sessiondb anyconnect filter name longusernct filter name longuserna                         eshow vpn-sessiondb anyconnect filter name longuser$",
            "INFO: There are presently no active sessions of the type specified"
        ],

    ]
}

Output when the executed command is relatively short.

TASK [debug] **************************************************************************************************************************************************************************
ok: [loooooonghostname] => {
    "msg": [
        [
            "INFO: There are presently no active sessions of the type specified"
        ],
        [
            "INFO: There are presently no active sessions of the type specified"
        ],
        [
            "INFO: There are presently no active sessions of the type specified"
        ]
    ]
}

Thanks,

The ASA terminal width was set to the default value of 80. When I was executing longer commands, it was exceeding the width. I should be good once i modify that value.  To be aware, is there any way this can be handled within Ansible ? as in just getting the system returned output while registering ?

Thanks,

SR
