Siri custom responses not working in pt_BR

Hi! I'm having issues localizing siri custom templated responses to Portuguese. It used to work a while ago, we only noticed it happening a few weeks ago. Instead of speaking our custom response, a generic "OK, veja só" message is spoken instead.

Custom failure messages work correctly, and custom success messages in other localizations such as English or German work correctly.

Anyone can confirm this bug? I created rdar://49517251 and TSI ticket which was dismissed as the bugreport is still under investigation (or limbo?)

We are close to releasing our first version including Siri Shortcuts, and not having custom responses in our native locale is a dealbreaker! 😟


We tested in both Xcode 10.1 and Xcode 10.2 and several devices running iOS 12.1 / iOS 12.1.4 / iOS 12.2


Best,

Rafael

We have noticed that disabling Siri and enabling it again will make custom responses work again for some time. But a single device reboot or waiting some time (minutes to hours) will make it stop working again.
