Is there a trick to get pinch-zoom working on maps with Firefox and Windows 7?

I have a touchscreen monitor and I'm trying to get pinch-zoom working with maps built with the ArcGIS Javascript API. Pinch-zoom works fine on IE 10, but on Firefox, it Zooms In/Out Firefox, not the maps. In other words, "zooming in" makes the Firefox font bigger rather than zooming in on the map. Is there any trick I'm missing in either the Javascript API or Firefox configuration to get pinch-zoom to zoom in on maps?

Thanks.

Maybe using viewport characteristic for mobile application will help:

<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0, maximum-scale=1.0, user-scalable=0">

I have the same issue in IE 11, windows 10, Esri JS SDK 4.3

I've tried every possible <meta tag stuff I could find on the interweb. What is weird is our 3.x version works great. The same <meta tag from our 3.x version still has the 4.3 version not work. My guess is that the map never even sees the pinch and the browser does its normal sizing thing. There must be a way to shut that off.

Things I've tried:

Any thoughts would be most appreciated.
