Interesting, it works fine here with my intel ssd.
So could you please do:
1. mount -t debugfs none /sys/kernel/debug/
2. echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/ext4/ext4_discard_blocks/enable 
3. run you test
4. after 'rm', do
cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace

If your see something like 
jbd2/sdb2-8-23853 [000] .... 30125.695303: ext4_discard_blocks: dev 8,18 blk
34816 count 3072
              rm-23870 [000] .... 30130.908415: ext4_discard_blocks: dev 8,17
blk 34816 count 3072

(The first one is captured by the device with journal and the second one is
captured by the device without journal).
Then that does mean ext4 has sent out the discard command to the underlying
device.

btw, my kernel version is 3.6.
