This could be done one of two ways:

Embedded

I tested Embedded code running this and it too is running fine...you too can test this by going here https://microsoft.github.io/PowerBI-JavaScript/demo/v2-demo/index.html clicking "Run" then go to "interact" and navigation > Set page then "Run" Again

Thanks. Since posting this I have discovered that same method, namely a query string parameter to append to the url which specifies the page you want to see.  We were previously using the PostMessage method (another developer found this, I'm not sure where) and that is no longer working. 

 

I would add, though, that this information belongs in the documentation page for publish to web.
