Video appears on the page but can not play

[Mikeks81]

I'm having problems getting the component to play my video. I keep getting the error this.el_.play is not a function when i press the play button.

my current implementation of the component is

<ReactPlayerLoader
    accountId='1625296048001'
    playerId='0261d90f-ba8d-47eb-b883-d7d68dd58e91'
    videoId='6056576437001'
  />

is there anything else i need to do ?

my app deps

    "@brightcove/react-player-loader": "^1.2.1",
    "babel-polyfill": "^6.26.0",
    "bootstrap": "^4.3.1",
