JavaScript - iScroll - mousedown not triggering

Question

We are using iScroll in our project, and some elements in it's scroll area have mousedown event attached.

On newest build of Google Chrome(55.0.2883.95 (64-bit)) mousedown event is never triggered and the reason is pointerdown event registered by IScroll.

Is there any way around it? I could of course use pointerdown instead of mousedown, but it is not supported in Safari, therefore I would need some dirty browser check.

(function () {
  var scroll = new IScroll('#scroller');

  document.getElementById('testblock').addEventListener('mousedown', mousedownEventHandler);
  
  function mousedownEventHandler(event) {
    console.info(event.type, 'triggered.');
  }
})();

body {
  padding: 0;
  margin: 0;
}

#scroller {
  position: absolute;
  top: 0;
  left: 0;
  bottom: 0;
  right: 0;
}

#content {
  height: 5000px;
  background: white;
}

#testblock {
  position: fixed;
  top: 0;
  width: 100px;
  height: 100px;
  line-height: 100px;
  background: silver;
  border: 1px solid black;
  cursor: pointer;
  text-align: center;
}

<script src="https://rawgit.com/cubiq/iscroll/master/build/iscroll-probe.js"></script>
<div id="scroller">
  <div id="content">
    <div id="testblock">Click me</div>
  </div>
</div>

You need to add the click parameter to the options object.

var scroll = new IScroll('#scroller', {
    click: true
});
