Bug: Audio elements with controls cannot be clicked

ionic-v1
1

I think I may have found a possible bug. I have an HTML5 audio element with controls enabled:

<audio controls src="html://example.com/sample.mp3"></audio>

If you try to click on the play button, or any control, the click has no effect. I modified the tapClickGateKeeper function as I’ll show below and that fixed the issue:

function tapClickGateKeeper(e) {
	
  if(e.target.nodeName === "AUDIO"){
      return true;
  }
....// existing code
}

I imagine this bug is true for the video element as well.

Can anyone look into getting this fixed?

Thanks!

That function already exists in the ionic bundle javascript file (in lib/ionic/js). You just have to add the if statement. You also have to add it to another function to allow taps:

self.touchStart = function(e) {
    
    if(e.target.nodeName === "AUDIO"){
        return;
    }
