that does not work.

possibly because the table 'pages' is handeled in another way than other
tables. Other tables hold their localized data in the same table (special
fields sys_language_uid, l18n_parent_uid). alternative records for pages are
located in the table 'pages_language_overlay' with a subset of the fields of
pages.

either you have to select "page.config.sys_language_softMergeIfNotBlank =
pages_language_overlay:media"
or you can post a new bug, because the handling of
sys_language_softMergeIfNotBlank must be enhanced for
pages/pages_language_overlay ;-).
