Authenticating to SharePoint Online site using CSOM
I've seen this error more than once. In most cases I just typed username / password wrong. Federated authentication should not be a problem but have you considered using App Credentials also? Are you using Multi-factor authentication?
PnP's AuthenticationManager Class provides some usefull utility methods to obtain an authenticated context in different ways. Could you try using GetWebLoginClientContext for getting an authenticated context?
