magento2: Translation in html files using $t() broken?

I use beta4 and switched the store language to de_DE. While many strings are just not yet translated to DE, there is a translation in app/code/Magento/Checkout/i18n/de_DE.csv for example for

"Shipping Address",Lieferungsadresse

If I am getting it correctly, this is referenced in app/code/Magento/Checkout/view/frontend/web/template/shipping.html:8

<div class="step-title" data-bind="text: $t('Shipping Address')" data-role="title"></div>

But still the English text is shown.

Is the Javascript translation currently broken?

This is still an issue I have data-bind="text: isVirtual ? $t('Enter your billing address to get a tax estimate.') : $t('Enter your destination to get a delivery estimate.')" which does not get added to a CSV when running collect-phrases and trying to manually translate it doesn’t work.

Workaround, tested in magento 2.2.6

Copy the file: vendor/magento/module-checkout/view/frontend/web/template/cart/shipping-estimation.html

To your theme: app/design/frontend/<your_vendor_name>/<your_theme_name>/Magento_Checkout/web/template/cart/shipping-estimation.html

Then the strings are going to be translated:

$t(‘Estimate Tax’) $t(‘Estimate Shipping and Tax’) $t(‘Enter your billing address to get a tax estimate.’) $t(‘Enter your destination to get a shipping estimate.’)

Tried all solutions in this thread and others on the internet without solving the issue with $t() not working. My frontend js-translation.json is empty (located at pub/static/frontend/<Vendor>/<theme>/sv_SE/js-translation.json even though I have non-empty translations at /app/i18n/magento/sv_se/sv_SE.csv and /app/design/frontend/<Vendor>/<theme>/i18n/sv_SE.csv that works on PHP level, I clear caches with bin/magento cache:clean and bin/magento cache:flush and find pub/static -name js-translation.json -exec rm -rf {} \; and run bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy sv_SE on latest Magento 2.1.2.

I did not followup this. But I checked the js-translate.json and it looked good. I can currently use develop, because I use composer and do not want to mess with that process at the moment. I hope there will soon be another composer release?
