Why does Visual Studio 2013 not know the definition of a property I defined?

I declared an interface like this:

interface IConfigAdmin {
    contentCreatedBy: number;
}

Here I am using it:

    private getDefaultAdminConfigs = (): IConfigAdmin => {
        return {
            contentCreatedBy: null
        };
    }

If I try to set this to [] instead of null it gives an error as I would expect but why is it that when I hover over contentCreatedBy in VS2013 that it says this is a (property) contentCreatedBy: any

You can fix this by casting it to IConfigAdmin first. This way you get autocompletion to while typing. I guess it could have inferred the type because of the return statement but I'm not sure.

return <IConfigAdmin> { }

See playground: link
