Describe the issue you are experiencing

In a card configuration that contains the following :

    tap_action:
      confirmation:
        text: Do you want to toggle water_valve_3?

The confirmation does not pop if you click on the slider or the icon.

Better explained in video : https://streamable.com/xzjq9a

Describe the behavior you expected

Expected behavior : pop the confirmation modal when I click anywhere on the tile (on the primary text/title, on the secondary text/description, on the slider, on the blank margins, on the icon, etc.), that is to say anywhere inside the tile borders

Steps to reproduce the issue

1. Add this card (edit entity)

cards:
  - type: tile
    name: Valve 3
    icon: mdi:sprinkler
    entity: valve.water_valve_3
    features_position: bottom
    vertical: false
    show_entity_picture: false
    hide_state: false
    state_content:
      - state
      - last_changed
    features:
      - type: valve-open-close
    tap_action:
      confirmation:
        text: Do you want to toggle water_valve_3?

2. Click the slide to toggle on/off the valve

Expected behavior : a modal with a confirmation prompt before triggering the toggle
Noted behavior : Toggle is triggered immediately, without any confirmation modal

Why it does matter : On the mobile app, I found myself triggering actions while just willing to scroll up/down the dashboard, hence the confirmation prompt on critical buttons.

[karwosts]

tap_action/confirmation only applies to the tap_action on the card, not on extra buttons.

This is the exact same issue long debated for entities card which also has toggles, and tap_action/confirmation doesn't apply there either.

Indeed icon_tap_action is a completely separate option. You can add a confirmation to that as well.
Sliders and other features handle their own actions and are not influenced by tap_action either
