Input System On-Screen Button doesn't work with touchscreen 2019.3.2f1

I've been stuck with this for a week now.

I am trying to make my player jump whenever the space button is pressed (if a keyboard is present), and I'm adding a on-screen button for players on mobile. The on-screen button works fine in the editor but when I try the game in a device (and android phone) the on-screen button doesn't work.

Here's how things are set up:

Change the Active Input Handling to Input System Package (New) on the player settings.
Create the Jump action for the Player action map.
Bind <Keyboard>/space to my Jump action.
Add a PlayerInput component to my player object, pass my actions file to it, and set up the events to call for each action.
Change the StandaloneInputModule to an InputSystemUIInputModule in my event system object.
In my canvas I add an image and add OnScreenButton component to it (I do NOT add a Button component).
Set the control path to <Keyboard>/space.

When I try the game on the device the rest of the UI buttons work fine except the on-screen button. On the editor though (using mouse input), the on-screen button works fine. This is my first time using the Input System, I had actually found it somewhat nice to work with, however this does seem really strange. It is either a really strange bug (unlikely), or I messed up some setting (the setup process feels really convoluted actually).
