I have the same problem. 

 

As a workaround i used report.updateSettings() with the new settings: "Extend option menu" after report = powerbi.embed().

 

...
var reportContainer = document.getElementById('reportContainer');
var report = powerbi.embed(reportContainer, config);

var newSettings = {
  extensions: [{
      command: {
        name: "extension command",
        title: "Extend commands",
        extend: {
          visualOptionsMenu: {
            title: "Extend options menu"}
        }
      }
    }
  ]
};

report.updateSettings(newSettings)
    .catch(function (error) {
        Log.log(errors);
    });

1) Embed > View mode > Run

2) Interact > Edit & Save > Enter edit mode > Run

3) Interact > Menu Extensions > Extend options menu > Run
