 When you change language in Settings > General, translations of core for
 that language are downloaded, but plugins and themes translations aren't.
 You need to either manually upgrade translations, do any upgrade, or wait
 until `wp_maybe_auto_update` event fires, which can take couple of hours.

 I tried to follow same approach as in [30554] and to hook function
 `wp_maybe_auto_update` after language is changed and cache is cleared,
 which should update caches and download translations, but it seems that
 API doesn't give translations links.

 Since right now I can't investigate it in more details, I want to propose
 fixing this issue with something simple on WP side as in attached patch.
