Set formControl value manually doesn't update the view

I’ve problems to set values manually in formControl. On ngOnInit, I call this code to test:

sliderControl: FormControl = new FormControl(360);

this.sliderControl.setValue(60)

On my view HTML, the value 60min appears and it’s ok. But the slider position, is on initial position, as you can see:

The position didn’t change. The expected behavior is: .

My options:

 options: Options = {
    step: 30,
    floor: 0,
    ceil: 1439,
    showSelectionBar: true,

    getSelectionBarColor: (value: number): string => {
        if (value <= 150) {
            return 'green';
        }
        if (value <= 360) {
            return 'yellow';        }

        if (value <= 900) {
          return 'orange';
      }        
        if (value <= 1440) {
            return 'red';
        }
        return '#2AE02A';
    },

I’m using this version of ng5-slider: Version “ng5-slider”: “^1.1.14”,

In recent changes, I re-wrote most of value update and normalisation code using rxjs, fixing a lot of similar bugs.

This should be fixed once I make the next release in the next day or two.

Just an FYI, we found that this is in fact the issue. The library expects numeric values, but works for most use-cases with strings. We switched our values to numeric and this corrected this issue.
