Pathauto not working for forum and container

Hi,

I am running drupal 8.3.5 and I want to use pathauto for forum and container.

When I create an alias for pattern type forum, I can only choose taxonomy tokens,
there are no tokens for forum.

So I choose : /forum/[term:name]

When i do a bulk generate then the following alias is created for the default general discussion forum :

/forum/general-discussion : /taxonomy/term/1

When I go to my drupal home pages and I select the forum, this alias is not used.
The url that is used is : http://host:port/forum/1

When I create the alias for the forum manually :

/forum/general-discussion : /forum/1

It works when I go to the home page and select the general forum.

Am I missing something or is this a bug ??
