Ionic-framework: Ionic 2 - ion-menu and ion-tabs together

[pedropapa]

Short description of the problem:

While using ion-tabs inside ion-menu, the tabs have opacity set to 0 and is not shown to the user. Setting the opacity to 1 turn the tabs visible but they doesn't work.

Looking at some answers on google, some people said that surrounding my tabs with "ion-content" solves the problem, but for me it doesn't.

What behavior are you expecting?

Just navigate between pages inside tabs on the sidemenu.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Create an app with a ion-menu created by a ion-nav.

<ion-menu [content]="chat" side="right">
    <chat-panel></chat-panel>
</ion-menu>

<ion-nav [root]="rootPage" #conteudo #chat></ion-nav>

1. chat-panel directive's component:

@Component({
  selector: 'chat-panel',
  templateUrl: 'build/pages/chat/panel/panel.html',
  directives: [InitToolbar]
})
export class ChatPanelPage {
  view: any;
  @ViewChild('panelTabs') panelTabs: Tabs;
  contactsPage: ChatContactsPage;
  sessionsPage: ChatSessionsPage;

  constructor() {
  }

  close() {
    this.view.dismiss();
  }
}

1. chat panel html:

 <ion-tabs #panelTabs tabbarPlacement="top">
    <ion-tab  tabTitle="Conversas" [root]="sessionsPage"></ion-tab>
    <ion-tab  tabTitle="Contatos" [root]="contactsPage"></ion-tab>
</ion-tabs>

Other information:
Changing the "opacity" property of ion-tabbar class to 1 make the tabs appear, but they still doesn't work.

Hello, unfortunately I cannot reproduce this issue with our Ionic Conference App which uses a sidemenu with tabs. Would you mind taking a look at the setup on that app? Thanks!
