Video showing poster disappearing prematurely

Overview:

In the latests versions of Safari on iOS the poster disappears before the video itself is ready to play.
The background is then showing through for a while, causing a flash when starting videos. 

The video element should switch seamlessly from poster to video.


Steps to reproduce: 

1. Go to test page https://codepen.io/johannesodland/pen/XWMNvdW
2. Press play


Actual results: 

Poster disappears prematurely once user presses play, leaving a transparent element with the background showing through. 
Video appears later once it has enough data to play.

Expected results: 

Poster is visible until video is ready to play, switching seamlessly to video

Build and hardware:

Safari on iOS 14.6
iPhone 11 Pro
