Thanks for the issue. I think this problem stems from the fact that we only allow 1 menu to be enabled at a time. If you want these two side panes to be always be open, I would recommend wrapping them in something other than ion-menu.

In your demo repo, I wrapped them each in a div rather than an ion-menu and the issue disappeared. Can you try this and let me know if it works for your use case?

If you really need to use ion-menu, I would recommend only having 1 instance of the menu.

Issue happens even if only using one ion-menu; @liamdebeasi your quick fix works, if I replace ion-menu tag with a div one, split pane is always shown.

@liamdebeasi thanks for you help, its much appreciated. it works perfect when you use div..

[eduardoRoth]

When using div tag instead of ion-menu; tags ion-content and ion-footer don't work as expected.

@liamdebeasi are you saying we should have no more than one menu in an application or we may run into problems even if only one of them is shown at one time?
