I think it might be something with `on.branch`, but I’m not quite sure.

This is explained in [Deployment - Travis CI](https://docs.travis-ci.com/user/deployment/#conditional-releases-with-on). In particular:

> - `branch` : name of the branch. If omitted, this defaults to the `app` -specific branch, or `master` . If the branch name is not known ahead of time, you can specify `all_branches: true`_instead of_`branch:` and use other conditions to control your deployment.

Since you do not specify `on.branch`, only the `master` branch is permitted to run deployments. This build is on `release`, so it’s not permitted to run deployments.
