GameAgent: Volley error when reporting played

Question

I am having a problem with play-game services. For a simple connection I get:

07-14 00:28:08.394 28271 28271 I gobandroid: connected
07-14 00:28:08.783 19165 19206 E Volley  : [1562] BasicNetwork.performRequest: Unexpected response code 401 for https://www.googleapis.com/games/v1/applications/played

07-14 00:28:08.789 19165 28324 W GameAgent:     at com.android.volley.NetworkDispatcher.run(:com.google.android.gms:113)

for this init code

  mGoogleApiClient = GoogleApiClient.Builder(activity).addConnectionCallbacks(object : GoogleApiClient.ConnectionCallbacks {
      override fun onConnected(bundle: Bundle?) {
          Log.i("connected")
      }

      override fun onConnectionSuspended(i: Int) {
         // Attempt to reconnect
         mGoogleApiClient!!.connect()
      }
  }).addApi(Games.API).addScope(Games.SCOPE_GAMES).build()

this is the related version:

com.google.apis:google-api-services-games:v1-rev197-1.22.0

This is also in the logs and maybe related:

Please try to have HTTP Authentication using volley library.

Solutions and explanations given in these SO posts - com.android.volly.AuthFailureError in making basic volly POST request to a django server and How does one use Basic Authentication with Volley on Android? might help. Happy coding! :)
