I had the same problem in rc6 and master.

Did you check if it's a problem with z-index stacking? The pointer-events are catched by the md-backdrop.

For me, the md-backdrop that gets attached to the body, was in front of the opened menu.

The problem is that the md-open-menu-container is in RC6 a child of md-menu. If the md-menu is inside a different z-index stacking branch the backdrop can be above it.

<md-backdrop> --> z-index: 94
<any-element> 
  <another element> --> z-index: < 94
    <md-menu/> --> z-index: 95 but it is always under the backdrop because the z-index: 94 of the parent is handled as independent stacking branch.
  </another element>
</any-element>

I hope this helps a little bit. When you increase the z-index of the another-element you'll loose that click anywhere to close menu behavior (above the area of the another element).

I'm noticing the same thing as @SuperheroicCoding . Here's a short demo of some evidence that at least some of this could be z-index related:

Also, I'm noticing the font color changed to white after updating to RC6, but that might be unrelated since I tend to play with the themes a lot.

If I have time soon, I'll create a CodePen isolating the issue.

@brianppoole exactly, thanks for the demo. Yes the font color is maybe from a custom style. Perhaps on md-menu. I had the same issue.
