Using Matomo self-hosted instance with trackEvent/trackGoal not working

[intuitiveminds]

🐛 The bug

Hey guys,

I am trying to use custom event/goal tracking with a self-hosted Matomo instance and I cannot get it to work properly. Page views are being tracked, but whenever I try to use the proxy._paq.push() method, nothing happens. I attached a small example project to this issue that shows the problem (I was unable to use StackBlitz because the provided starter always failed to fetch dependencies in my case).

If I don't use the proxy but instead choose to use the _paq object directly, the events/goals are being tracked, so I suspect the proxy-mechanism does not work in my case. This happens in dev and prod builds.example.zip

🛠️ To reproduce

see attached project

🌈 Expected behavior

Custom goals and events being tracked.
