Copy visual as image

Copy visual as image from Power BI service works fine when pasting in Word and Outlook. 

Trying to paste in Powerpoint and Excel I only get metadata about the visual, not the image. 

Why is it workning in Word and Outlook, but not in Powerpoint and Excel? Workaround is to copy visual to Word first and then copy from Word to Powerpoint. But this is not how we want to work. 

Using Office 2016.
