[Bug]: Vue i18n locale changes in storybook 7.6 not working consistently

[ben-hamel]

Describe the bug

Vue i18n isn't changing locales consistently. It seems to change correctly in the component, but not in the locale changer. So locale scope of vuei18n is changing but not global scope. when you refresh the page or if app has only one story then it will work as expected.

My work has a bigger project where we first found this. it was working in Storybook 6.5 with Vite but now since our upgrade to 7.6, we can't get the locale working consistently in the Storybook or it's tests.
