Comment (by Viper007Bond):

 This is likely expected behavior. The results of oEmbed requests are
 cached to post meta and so without a post object to work off of, the
 standard oEmbed implementation can't work.

 Even if it did work in the editor, it's not going to render in your
 dashboard widget for the same reason.
