vuejs2 - Vuetify Storybook remapInternalIcon issue

Question

Using Vuetify 2 and Storybook 6 (source https://github.com/lydonchandra/vuetify2storybook6 )

The component renders fine, but keep getting this error TypeError because vm.$vuetify.icons is undefined, when rendering component for first time.

Not sure which storybook-vuetify initialization bridge did I miss ?

TypeError: Cannot read property 'component' of undefined

function remapInternalIcon(vm, iconName) {

  // Get the target icon name

import Vue from "vue";
import Vuetify from "vuetify/lib";
import { UserVuetifyPreset } from "vuetify";

Vue.use(Vuetify);

export const options: UserVuetifyPreset = {
  icons: {
  iconfont: "mdiSvg"
  }
};

export default new Vuetify(options);

Workaround for now is to set addon-essentials.docs to false. (Ref. https://github.com/storybookjs/storybook/issues/7593)

file: .storybook/main.js

  ...
  "addons": [
    "@storybook/addon-links",
    {
      name: "@storybook/addon-essentials",
      options: {
        docs: false
      }
     }
  ],
  ...
