iOS Xcode LaunchScreen Storyboard not displaying

I'm trying to use Xcode's LaunchScreen storyboard as my launch screen? All the questions that have previously been asked about this refer back to the old launch image or .xib method - trying to do it now with the new LaunchScreen storyboard that Xcode automatically generates instead. I've selected the LaunchScreen storyboard as my launch screen file in my Deployment Info: Deployment Info Image

The storyboard itself confirms that it is set as the launch screen in it's file inspector.

File Inspector of LaunchScreen storyboard

And the info.plist file reflects this as well.

And yet, it doesn't work. The LaunchScreen storyboard never shows - it just goes straight to the first screen in my main storyboard. Using Xcode 7.2 and deploying to iOS 9.
