link_toしてもsvgによってリンクできない

railsでリンク機能をつけたいのですが、以下のようにしてもリンクが機能しません。

<ul class="nav navbar-nav navbar-right">
										    <li>
										      <%= link_to(root_path) do %>
											   <i class="fa fa-home"></i>ホーム
											  <% end %>   
										    </li>
									  
									  
										    <li>
										       <%= link_to(new_post_path) do %>
											   <i class="fa fa-bookmark"></i>マイページ
											   <% end %>
										    </li>
</ul>

コンソールを調べてみたところ、以下のようになっておりsvgというものが邪魔している（？）ようです

fontawsomeを導入するのにCDNを利用したのですが、なにか関係あるでしょうか？

解決策をご存知の方がいれば教えてください。

表示はされているのですが、クリックしてもURIが変わリマセン。

以下はgemfileです

git_source(:github) do |repo_name|
  repo_name = "#{repo_name}/#{repo_name}" unless repo_name.include?("/")
  "https://github.com/#{repo_name}.git"
end
