Ionic 3 cordova-plugin-streaming-media. Hide fullscreen virtual buttons

I'm running the streaming media plugin in landscape mode, but the virtual buttons do not pop up. I've even tried to use another plugin (AndroidFullScreen) to leave the screen in fullscreen mode, but the time I play the video the virtual bar comes back. Here is the image and code below:

this.androidFullScreen.isImmersiveModeSupported()
      .then(() => { this.androidFullScreen.immersiveMode() })
      .catch(err => console.log(err));

let options: StreamingVideoOptions = {
      successCallback: () => { },
      errorCallback: (e) => { },
      orientation: 'landscape',
      controls: false
    };

    this.streamingMedia.playVideo('https://www.sample-videos.com/video/mp4/720/big_buck_bunny_720p_1mb.mp4', options);
