'Mock throwing of Exception with Android Coroutines

I am introducing coroutines to an android app I am working. There is lots of legacy but I am now adding some new networking code and using coroutines for it.

EDIT Updating to add the whole test

coEvery { service.getAddress(any(), any(), any()) } coAnswers { throw Exception("Test Exception") }
val subject = repository.getAddress(123, "en", null)

coVerify(exactly = 1) { service.getAddress(any(), any(), any())}

So the line coEvery { service.getAddress(any(), any(), any()) } coAnswers { throw Exception("Test Exception") } in the test on it's own doesn't cause an issue. It falls down when adding val subject = repository.getAddress(123, "en", null)

EDIT 2 TO INCLUDE REPO Here is the repo:

class AddressRepository (
    val addressRestService: AddressRestService,
    val dispatcher: CoroutineDispatcher
){
    suspend fun getAddress(
        wlid: Int,
        locale: String?,
        googleAddressObject: GeoResponse?
    ) : AddressForm = withContext(dispatcher) {
             addressRestService.getAddress(wlid, locale, googleAddressObject)
    }
}

I am using clean architecture and I am trying to test my repository. I am using the Mockk lib and I am trying to test a failure.

Below is a snippet:

coEvery {
    service.getAddress(123, "en", null)
} throw Exception()

When running the above I get test failure with the following stack trace:

I have tried different variations e.g.

coEvery {
    service.getAddress(123, "en", null)
}.coAnswers {
    throw Exception()
}

When running the above I get a test failure with the following stack trace:

I would very much appreciate if anyone could point out where I'm going wrong.. if it is possible to mock throwing an exception with coroutines. Any tips appreciated
