Does Yammer embed disable the back button in Edge and other browsers?

Question

Does Yammer embed disable the back button in Edge and other browsers?

With Yammer embed on the page the browser back button does not work on the page. This seems like a new problem.

Yes - Same in all browsers.

These are the options I am setting:-

yam.connect.embedFeed({
feedType: "open-graph",
config: {
"use_sso": true,
header: scope.header,
footer: scope.footer,
showOpenGraphPreview: false,
defaultToCanonical: false,
hideNetworkName: false,
defaultGroupId: groupId,
promptText: "WhatDoYouThinkAbout"
},
objectProperties: {
url: Url,
description: "JoinTheConversation",
title: "test",
type: "page",
fetch: true,
private: false,
"ignore_canonical_url": false
},
container: "." + scope.container,
network: data.yammer.network
});

As the issue exists in all browsers, it's Yammer's issue. Yammer is currently not supported in the Q&A forums, the supported products are listed over here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/answers/products (more to be added later on).

We encounter the same problem. Did you find a solution, or a thread / bug report to track the issue further?

Fixed for now as follows:

yammerContainer.addEventListener(
            'DOMNodeInserted',
            (event) => {
                iFrame = event.target as HTMLIFrameElement;

                let loadCount = 0;
                iFrame.addEventListener(
                    'load',
                    () => {
                        /*
                         * Iframe loads when .src is set (Yammer loading) and when browser back button is pushed.
                         * Act only on second load, which is a refresh after browser back button click.
                         */
                        if (loadCount >= 2) top.history.go(-1);
                        loadCount++;
                    },
                    false
                );
            },
            false
        );
