So even if you deliver exactly what they were expecting they are upset that you didn't need to ask any questions to get there?

Yes, because getting to the right answer is not the point of the interview. Apart from anything else, getting to the right answer may mean you memorised it and are incapable of doing anything else. Always show your working and thought process. Asking questions and showing that you understand tradeoffs and that users have different requirements is a good way to do that.
