Hi,

Please set ansible_python_interpreter as below for playbook. Then always the same python env will be used for shell execution and AWX - python related to ansible-playbook.

---
- name: A playbook for something
  hosts: localhost
  gather_facts: false
  vars:
    ansible_python_interpreter: "{{ ansible_playbook_python }}"

  tasks:
