Generic type inference failure in a union.

TypeScript Version: 3.3.0-dev.20190117

Search Terms: generic type inference, union types

Code

function f1<A1, B1>(cb: (a: A1, b: B1) => void) {
  f2(cb);  // I expect no errors
}

function f2<A2, B2>(cb: ((x: number, a: A2, b: B2) => void)|
                    ((a: A2, b: B2) => void)) {}  // If I swap the two types it compiles

Expected behavior:
No errors.

Actual behavior:

TS2345: Argument of type '(a: A1, b: B1) => void' is not assignable to parameter of type '((x: number, a: B1, b: B1) => void) | ((a: B1, b: B1) => void)'.
  Type '(a: A1, b: B1) => void' is not assignable to type '(x: number, a: B1, b: B1) => void'.
    Types of parameters 'a' and 'x' are incompatible.
      Type 'number' is not assignable to type 'A1'.

I looked around and didn't anything obviously related.

Hm. If anything, the order of the union members shouldn't change the behavior.
