title: Ionic history stack when using side menu and tabs
body: <p>I am having some troubles with ionic and its history stack when using side menus and tabs. </p>
  
  <p>I created a plunker example here: <a href="http://embed.plnkr.co/XK6seY9mDypTW6GcsCpj/preview">http://embed.plnkr.co/XK6seY9mDypTW6GcsCpj/preview</a></p>
  
  <p>Steps to follow to get to the problem:</p>
  
  <ol>
  <li>Open side menu</li>
  <li>Navigate to "Master List"</li>
  <li>Choose one of the items</li>
  <li>You'll get redirected to the general-data-tab of the detail page</li>
  </ol>
  
  <p>The problem is that there's no back-button displayed in navigation by ionic itself. I created an own back button that calls <strong>$ionicGoBack($event)</strong> to see whether ionic has the history stack or not. But when clicking this button you'll see that ionic does not navigate back to the master-list, instead you'll stay on the general-data-tab of the detail page.</p>
  
  <p>Can anyone tell me what the problem is? I am aware of tabs having their own history stack, nevertheless the tab should know its ancestor, or am I wrong?</p>
  
  <p>Many thanks in advance for your help!</p>
  
  <p>Best regards</p>
