You're logging the wrong value. Instead of this:
print("Task: ${downloadUrl}")
Log this:
print("Task: ${downloadUrl.result.toString()}")
Your downloadUrl variable is not correctly named. It's a Task, not a URL. It might be clearer like this:
val task = it.result
val uri = task.result
val uriAsString = uri.toString()
