I can confirm this continues to be a problem in Terrafrom 1.5.6 with AWS provider v5.15.0:

Error: creating CloudTrail: starting logging: TrailNotFoundException: Unknown trail: arn:aws:cloudtrail:us-east-1:123123123123:trail/org-cloudtrail for the user: 123123123123

where 123123123123 is the delegated CloudTrail Administrator account. The trail did get created, in the organization master account as arn:aws:cloudtrail:us-east-1:111111111111:trail/iorg-cloudtrail where 111111111111 is the account of the organization master.
