Term translations not working as View’s path contextual filter

Let’s say you have a taxonomy called Animals and you have terms like Dog, Cat, Horse, etc. Every term has its translation, so for example for dogs you have Hund and Chien. Now you want to make a View which generates a page that lists content tagged with the Animals term reference, contextually filtering the tag based on the URL part.

And this is the part I’m having difficulties with. The contextual filter I made works perfectly with source language values and converts properly to term ID. So I’m getting correct listing (both in preview pane and generated page) for /animals/dog but incorrect for /tiere/hund.

The contextual filter is set to Content: Animal Genre (Translated) and validation to Localised term or synonym converted to term ID (actually I tried perhaps every possible combination of i18n and non-i18n options here, no joy).

I trie out another solution – with Content: Has taxonomy term ID + relationship (as described here).

Is it something I’m not setting up correctly or is there a bug around i18n, Views, i18nviews…? I’d be grateful for any guidance
