VP9 can't seek properly?

Is there a way to get VP9 video to seek properly? I only have mpv to work with, and the version of VLC I'm using can't play VP9. But I also try playing on chrome and the same thing happens. On firefox, too, and there the colors in the video are all messed up, but that's another issue.

Here is a short sample that I encoded with ffmpeg (libvpx-vp9). When you try to seek forward, which is 10 seconds on mpv, it goes to 00:02:46. Is there supposed to be some encoding option to get around this issue?
