Incorrect Behavoir for Android Hardware Back Button

[somethingnew2-0]

The Android hardware back button doesn't seem to be utilizing a stack in the implementation seen in the https://github.com/driftyco/ionic-angular-cordova-seed
It seems to be using more of a list instead going back to the previous view no matter if it's a child view of the current view

A simple way to reproduce this is in the seed app:

Tap "Cats"->Tap the software navigational back button (<-) in the header
This should then be at the main "Pet Information" page. If I tap the android hardware back button, the app should exit, however, it instead goes back the "Cats" page which is incorrect behavior.

Yay! Can't wait to test!

As far as I'm understanding the Android suggestions, the current behaviour in ionic is still wrong:
http://developer.android.com/design/patterns/navigation.html

There is an Up-Button (go to the parent item) and a Back-Button, that should lead the user one view back, no matter where he is or was (like history.back()). In my testings the behaviour of the Back-Button in an ionic App is what the Up-Button should do...

I am experiencing the same problem. In the starter app when you navigate from search to browse to playlist in the sidemenu the back button take you back the route you clicked (playlist > browse > search), instead it takes you to the home screen right away.
