XF 2.2 Widget conditional for user custom field

[Sperber]

@Brogan , for 1.5. you had introduced in an article how to utilize user custom fields, so users have a bit more control regarding the layout - so I guess this one´s for you again. Using the XFMG widget on the forums index page, we´ld like to give users the choice to hide that block. Going by your guide I´d created the CUF "mediablock" and set the widget conditional

!$xf.visitor.profile.custom_fields.mediablock

Unfortunaly, this doesn´t seem to work and regardless of the setting of that CUF the widget is still being displayed. Can you tell me, what I am doing wrong here?
