media_sideload_image() does not return 'src' when 'src' is passed as return parameter

[brs14ku]

Function returns either WP_Error or the html image tag with the src in it. It doesn't return just the source when specifying it as the return parameter as the docs state here ​https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/media_sideload_image/

Ticket #19629 is a request to add a return option of the id as an enhancement. This however, seems like a bug.

This works for me.

var_dump( media_sideload_image( 'http://example.com/test-images/dolomites.jpg', 0, '', 'src' ) );
returns: http://example.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/dolomites.jpg

Feel free to re-open with an example case that fails.
