Calling `switch_to_locale()` fails to load plugin translations on subsequent calls

Description

In short, calling switch_to_locale() followed by restore_previous_locale() followed by switch_to_locale() fails to reload plugin text-domain strings. It appears to work as expected with the default text-domain however.

An example in code (see unit test attached).

$english_text_expected = __( 'Testing', 'textdomain' );
// returns 'Testing'

switch_to_locale( 'de_DE' );
$german_expected = __( 'Testing', 'textdomain' );
// returns 'Testen'
restore_previous_locale(); // Reset to English.

switch_to_locale( 'de_DE' );
$german_expected_again = __( 'Testing', 'textdomain' );
// returns 'Testing' - No translation?
restore_previous_locale();
