Use a default locale that is different from page file names

[arnoson]

I have an app which has its default locale set to de.
But I want to code everything in english, therefore the pages are named like pages/offers.vue
Inside the page i define the de path

// pages/offers.vue
<script setup>
  defineI18nRoute({ paths: { de: '/angebote' } })
</script>

I would expect that I can now use my file name to get the translated routes:

localePath('/offers') // should return `/angebote`

Which doesn't work, it still returns /offers. I guess because de is my default locale it takes the filename as the de route and doesn't take into account my defineI18nRoute. Has anyone a similar setup and found a solution for when your default locale is not matching your page file names?

My config is:

// nuxt.config.js
export default defineNuxtConfig({
  // ...
  i18n: {
    defaultLocale: 'de',
    locales: ['de'],
    strategy: 'prefix_except_default',
  },  
})

// i18n.config.js
export default defineI18nConfig(() => ({
  legacy: false,
  locale: 'de',
}))

I have the exact same issue and I had to disable the custom routes until a solution is found !
