How to render label tranlations in FormType?

I have form.

$builder
        ->add('name', TextType::class, array(
            'label' => 'ad_menu.fields.name.label',
            'required' => true,
            'translation_domain' => 'forms'
        ))
        ->add('title', TextType::class, array(
            'label' => 'ad_menu.fields.title.label',
            'required' => true,
            'translation_domain' => 'forms'
        ))
        ->add('description', TextareaType::class, array(
            'label' => 'ad_menu.fields.description.label',
            'translation_domain' => 'forms'
        ))
        ->add('visible', CheckboxType::class, array(
            'label' => 'ad_menu.buttons.edit.label',
            'translation_domain' => 'forms'
        ))
    ;

And I have forms.en.yml file in translations directory of the bundle.

ad_menu:
   fields:
      name:
        label: Name
      title:
        label: Title
      description:
        label: Description
      visible:
        label: Visible
  buttons:
    add:
        label: Add
    edit:
        label: Edit

But my form is untranslated.

enter image description here

If I use in twig template for example: {{ 'ad_menu.fields.name.label'|trans({}, 'forms') }} - it works.

What the problem? Thanks.

UPDATE:

In controller:

public function addAction(Request $request)
{
    $adMenu = new AdMenu();
    $form = $this->createForm(new AdMenuType(), $adMenu);

    $form->handleRequest($request);

    if ($form->isValid()) {
        $em = $this->getDoctrine()->getManager();
        $em->persist($adMenu);
        $em->flush();
    }

    return $this->render('AdBackendBundle:Menu:add.html.twig', array(
        'form' => $form->createView()
    ));
}

Form:

    class AdMenuType extends AbstractType
{
    /**
     * @param FormBuilderInterface $builder
     * @param array $options
     */
    public function buildForm(FormBuilderInterface $builder, array $options)
    {
        $builder
            ->add('name', TextType::class, array(
                'label' => 'ad_menu.fields.name.label',
                'required' => true,
//                'translation_domain' => 'forms'
            ))
            ->add('title', TextType::class, array(
                'label' => 'ad_menu.fields.title.label',
                'required' => true,
//                'translation_domain' => 'forms'
            ))
            ->add('description', TextareaType::class, array(
                'label' => 'ad_menu.fields.description.label',
//                'translation_domain' => 'forms'
            ))
            ->add('visible', CheckboxType::class, array(
                'label' => 'ad_menu.buttons.edit.label',
//                'translation_domain' => 'forms'
            ))
        ;
    }

    /**
     * @param OptionsResolver $resolver
     */
    public function configureOptions(OptionsResolver $resolver)
    {
        $resolver->setDefaults(array(
            'data_class' => 'AdBackendBundle\Entity\AdMenu',
            'translation_domain' => 'forms'
        ));
    }
}

Twig:

{{ form_start(form) }}
    <div class="form-group">
        <label for="ad_menu_title">{{ form.children.title.vars.label }}</label>
        {{ form_widget(form.title, {'attr': {'class': 'form-control', 'id': 'ad_menu_title'}}) }}
    </div>
    <div class="form-group">
        <label for="ad_menu_name">{{ form.children.name.vars.label }}</label>
        {{ form_widget(form.name, {'attr': {'class': 'form-control', 'id': 'ad_menu_name'}}) }}
    </div>
    <div class="form-group">
        <label for="ad_menu_description">{{ form.children.description.vars.label }}</label>
        {{ form_widget(form.description, {'attr': {'class': 'form-control', 'id': 'ad_menu_description'}}) }}
    </div>
    <div class="checkbox">
        <label>
            {{ form_widget(form.visible) }}
            {{ form.children.visible.vars.label }}
        </label>
    </div>
    <input type="submit" class="btn btn-success" value="{{ 'ad_menu.buttons.add.label'|trans({}, 'forms') }}">
{{ form_end(form) }}

You have to set the translation_domain in the configureOptions() method of your "formType" like in the example below:

use Symfony\Component\OptionsResolver\OptionsResolver;

/**
 * @param OptionsResolver $resolver
 */
 public function configureOptions(OptionsResolver $resolver)
 {
     $resolver
         ->setDefaults([
             'translation_domain' => 'forms',
         ]);
 }

Read the related docs about translation domain on form type.

UPDATE BASED ON COMMENTS:

The error is related on how you are rendering the labels. You need to render each label like: {{ form_label(form.name) }} instead of {{ form.children.name.vars.label }}.

Read how to customize forms.

To get autoloading catalogues in Symfony2 full stack framework you need to use either

project_root/app/Resources/translations/domain.lang.format

or project_root/src/(*/)*Bundle/Resources/translations as path.

You seem to use translation instead of translations.

see http://symfony.com/doc/current/best_practices/i18n.html#translation-source-file-location

Also after modifying catalogues you may need to clear your cache
