React background video doesn't play on mobile devices - html

Question

I've been looking at many answers on how to troubleshoot html5 videos that aren't playing on a mobile device, but most are suggesting including mute or playsinline. Currently, my background video is playing perfectly fine on a computer, but still doesn't play on any of the mobile browsers. In fact, nothing gets loaded and only shows a blank page.
<div className="fullscreen-video-wrap">
<video playsinline loop autoPlay muted autobuffer poster="./media/bg.jpg">
<source src={require("./media/web-720cmp.mp4")} type="video/mp4" />
<source src={require("./media/web-720cmp.webm")} type="video/webm" />
<source src={require("./media/web-720cmp.ogv")} type="video/ogg" />
<img src={require("./media/bg.jpg")} alt=""/>
Your browser does not support the video tag. I suggest you upgrade your browser.
</video>
</div>

The Problem
It looks like muted doesn't work right when using the video tag with react. The muted attribute is required for videos to autoplay on mobile.
If you inspect the html of your webpage in your browser, you should see something like this for your video tag. Notice how there is no muted attribute. There's also no autobuffer or playsinline
<video loop="" autoplay="" poster="/media/bg.jpg">
<source src="/media/web-720cmp.mp4" type="video/mp4">
<source src="/media/web-720cmp.webm" type="video/webm">
<source src="/media/web-720cmp.ogg" type="video/ogg">
<img src="/media/bg.jpg" alt="">

The Solution
React should probably fix this, until then you can use something called dangerouslySetInnerHTML to insert an html block into your code. It would look like this
<div className="fullscreen-video-wrap" dangerouslySetInnerHTML={{ __html: `
<video playsinline loop autoPlay muted autobuffer poster="./media/bg.jpg">
<source src="${require('./media/web-720cmp.mp4')}" type="video/mp4" />
<source src="${require('./media/web-720cmp.webm')}" type="video/webm" />
<source src="${require('./media/web-720cmp.ogg')}" type="video/ogg" />
<img src="${require('./media/bg.jpg')}" alt=""/>
