This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:
If you're experiencing issues where the header and footer do not appear on translated pages using FSE pattern templates, it might be due to incorrect template assignment.
Solution:
First, ensure that the templates are correctly translated and check if they are assigned properly to the translated pages. This issue often arises when templates share the same slug or have very similar names. For more details, you can refer to our documentation on this known issue at https://wpml.org/errata/template-is-not-applied-to-translated-page/.
In the specific case addressed, we manually edited the second language homepage and assigned the correct template, which resolved the issue. If you add a new language, you might need to manually assign the correct template to the translated pages as well. A permanent fix is planned for WPML 4.10.
.

If this solution does not apply to your case, or if it seems outdated, we highly recommend checking related known issues at https://wpml.org/known-issues/, verifying the version of the permanent fix, and confirming that you have installed the latest versions of themes and plugins. If issues persist, please open a new support ticket at WPML support forum.
