Can not create snapshots with searchguard enabled

Search Guard

I have a simple setup, where I only want to have ES over https (No need of ACLs)
ES version 1.6.

searchguard.enabled: true

searchguard.key_path: /usr/local/es_keys/

When I try to take snapshots
I see this

{“error”:"RuntimeException[java.lang.RuntimeException: Attempt from null to _all indices for cluster:admin/snapshot/create and User [name=searchguard_unauthenticated_user, roles=]]; nested: RuntimeException[Attempt from null to _all indices for cluster:admin/snapshot/create and User [name=searchguard_unauthenticated_user, roles=]]; ",“status”:500}
