How to use a default argument for std::array? "array must be initialized with a brace-enclosed initializer"

My constructor takes an std::array. I'm trying to give it a default value, but calling the constructor without an argument gives this error:

$ g++ -std=c++11 -Wall -Werror -Wextra -pedantic-errors test.cpp Position.cpp -o test
test.cpp: In function ‘int main()’:
test.cpp:14:29: error: array must be initialized with a brace-enclosed initializer
  Position *y = new Position();
                             ^
test.cpp:14:29: error: too many initializers for ‘std::array<unsigned char, 8ul>’

Line numbers are different. This is my code:

// test.cpp
int main() {
    Position *x = new Position({1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1}); // works
    Position *y = new Position(); // does not work
}

// Position.cpp
#include <cstdint>
#include <array>
#include "Position.h"
Position::Position( std::array<uint8_t,8> columns_ ) {
    columns = columns_;
}

// Position.h
#ifndef POSITION_H
#define POSITION_H
#include <array>
class Position {
    public:
    Position( std::array<uint8_t,8> = {0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0} );
    private:
    std::array<uint8_t,8> columns;
};
#endif

What have I got wrong?
