### Checklist - [X] I have updated to the latest available Home Assistant versi…on. - [X] I have cleared the cache of my browser. - [X] I have tried a different browser to see if it is related to my browser. - [X] I have tried reproducing the issue in [safe mode](https://www.home-assistant.io/blog/2023/11/01/release-202311/#restarting-into-safe-mode) to rule out problems with unsupported custom resources. ### Describe the issue you are experiencing When using a image element inside a picture-elements card, the hold_action (long press) is not working. After the long press, we see some visual response in the bottom left of the screen but the action does not trigger. I've tested that this doesn't happen using the browser version of lovelace so It seems it is only manifesting in with the android app. I opened a [issue there](https://github.com/home-assistant/android/issues/4908) but was forwarded here. I include a reproducible snippet (might have to change the entity to something that exists) ``` type: picture-elements image: https://demo.home-assistant.io/stub_config/floorplan.png elements: - type: image image: >- https://images.rawpixel.com/image_png_800/cHJpdmF0ZS9sci9pbWFnZXMvd2Vic2l0ZS8yMDI0LTAxL2Rlc2lnbndpdGhtZTA5X2FfbGlnaHRfYnVsYl9pbl90aGVfc3R5bGVfb2ZfaHlwZXItcmVhbGlzdGljX2lsbF9iMTE2ZmI3Zi1kYzc4LTQ1MDEtYWQwNC05NDY4YjVlNzU2ZjAucG5n.png style: top: 50% left: 50% width: 15% tap_action: action: toggle entity: light.bathroom_office ``` take notice of the flashing on the bottom left corner https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/43d7a3fd-e617-4bbe-847f-c73162cb7ce1 ### Describe the behavior you expected When long pressing the icon, the defined hold_action triggers (as it happens in non-android envs) https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/5e8e6189-a9e7-4f68-93a4-c3a33c730537 ### Steps to reproduce the issue 1.
