Rails Admin integration with Mobility gem

I'm trying to use the Mobility gem with Rails Admin. I am able to edit fields through the Rails Admin interface (like the impact_description of a Ngo model) and it correctly changes the translation tables:

testing on rails console if it changed the impact description

But the problem is, the Rails Admin interface does not show the correct translation (it is showing in pt-BR, even when the app is in english):

enter image description here

Has anyone sucessfully integrated Rails Admin with the Mobility gem? Thanks for the attention

EDIT: In my rails_admin.rb (initializer) I have the regular configurations for all actions (only changing new):

config.actions do
    dashboard                     # mandatory
    index                         # mandatory
    new do
      except [RewardRule, SuggestedFeed]
    end
    export
    import
    bulk_delete
    show
    edit
    # delete
    clone
    show_in_app

    ## With an audit adapter, you can add:
    # history_index
    # history_show
  end

And for the Ngo model I don't have any custom configuration, only that it is included on the Rails Admin models:

# rails_admin.rb
config.included_models = [..., Ngo, ...]

So I was able to do it after some research in the Rails Admin api. For this to work on the Ngo model in the show action, for example, I did:

config.model Ngo do
  show do
    fields do
      formatted_value{ bindings[:object].send(method_name) } # this calls the mobility method instead of getting the plain attribute, so it will translate on the admin.
    end
  end
end

In this case, all the fields will be calling the original method name, instead of the plain attribute. So for example, in my case, it will be calling ngo.impact_description, which will get the field translated, instead of reading the plain attribute ngo[:impact_description], which will always be in the default language.
