GuiceApplicationBuilder and PlayTest tests erroring with play/Configuration not found on run path

Question

We have our Playframework tests setup with fakeApplication using GuiceApplicationBuilder

class BaseSpec extends AnyFunSpec/PlaySpec with GuiceOneAppPerSuite {
  override def fakeApplication(): Application = new GuiceApplicationBuilder()
    .disable[PlayModule]
    .disable[JobSchedulerModule]
    .build()
}

We have our (sanitized) tests setup like

import BaseSpec

class SampleSpec extends BaseSpec {
   "test suite" should {
      "test case" in {
          .....
      }
   }
}

Whenever we run our tests, we get:

A needed class was not found. This could be due to an error in your runpath. Missing class: play/Configuration

)

The tests that do not require the fake app do not throw this exception. This exception is a result of us trying to upgrade our app from an older version. We tried altering the logic for GuiceOneAppPerSuite, but it doesnt work. We tried upgrading the version of PlayFramework, it still doesnt work. We can confirm that play/configuration is part of our runpath.
