Default Values for Field translations not working - Internationalization (i18n)

I think I am missing something obvious here folks - I have created my own Content Type with a Text Field, I then set the Default Value of the Text Field, then Translate it from my default language (English) to my other languages by going to:

Administration » Structure » Content types » CONTENT-TYPE » Manage fields » FIELD-NAME » Translate (other Languages) » Field Instance

It allows me to set Default Values for the other languages (great), then I create some content (in English) and Translate - the field only shows the English Default Value. The labels all get translated correctly.

Where am I going wrong? Many thanks in advance for your help.

admin language

Ok I figured out that I can get the Default Values to appear if I remove "node/add/*" from setting "Use administration language on only the listed pages" under Administration » Configuration » Regional and language » Languages.

But I don't really want this - I want to keep English for the Admin pages and get the Default Values from the other languages. Hmm is there a way?
