Current behavior:

When using the Slides component with the initialSlide option set inside a Modal component, the first slide appears briefly before switching to the initialSlide.

Expected behavior:
Slide specified by initialSlide should appear when the modal is opened

Steps to reproduce:

Related code:
image-modal.ts

export class ImageModal {

  photos: Array<any>;
  name: string;
  slideOptions: any;

  constructor(params: NavParams) {
    this.photos = params.data.photos;
    this.name = params.data.name;
    this.slideOptions = {
      initialSlide: params.data.startIndex,
      loop: true,
      pager: true
    }
  }

}

template.html

<ion-content padding>  
  <ion-slides [options]="slideOptions">
    <ion-slide *ngFor="let photo of photos">
      <img class="image" [src]="photo.original">
      <ion-item no-padding no-lines>
        <ion-avatar item-left>
          <img [src]="photo.userPhoto">
        </ion-avatar>
        {{photo.user}}
      </ion-item>
    </ion-slide>    
  </ion-slides>  
</ion-content>
