Did you figure out a solution? I don't think this is an issue per se, but would also like to figure this out. Maybe there's a snippit available.

I know the block titles are set in the .module files, and you can remove or replace the default titles using the block configuration.

You should not translate as an admin variable;
I believe the current procedure is the following;
If the block is created by you, such as a navigational block, you'll simply have to duplicate the block, set the language and translate the contents and block title.
If the block is created by a module you'll have to use the i18n strings module to look for the untranslated (english) string and provide translation(s), an alternative would be to translate and contribute back a .po file for your language.

Good luck

Thanks,
That is it. It works, it is not easy to understand though, maybe the UI could be improved in the futur.
