Solution

  • Make sure in your css, that the z-index of your overlay is set into a constant and is of less value than the z-index of your buttons.

    .overlay {
        position: absolute;
        width: 100%;
        height: 100%;
        z-index: 10;
    }
    
    .cameraPreview {
        display: flex;
        width: 100%;
        height: 100%;
        position: absolute;
    }
