Most likely the reason is the preseed you're using is not grabbing the
files in the late command. A snippet was recently contributed (and is
in the master branch on github) named download_config_files_deb, which
can be used in the late command directive for grabbing the defined
templated files. Grab that, and make sure it's included in your late
command (also look at the latest sample.seed in master), as follows:
d-i preseed/late_command string chroot /target sh -c ' \
$SNIPPET('download_config_files_deb')
'; \
$SNIPPET('kickstart_done')
