Text Hyperlinks not Working from Indesign EPUB

I am using KindleGen to generate a mobi file from an Indesign (Creative Cloud 2014) fixed layout epub. None of my text hyperlinks work.

There do not appear to be any errors from KindleGen
Code:

The code generated by Indesign
Code:

<a href="http://www.mydomain.com"><span id="_idTextSpan658" class="Hyperlink CharOverride-10" style="position:absolute;top:9768px;left:16958.58px;letter-spacing:-0.72px;">website</span></a>
I tried moving the <a> tag inside the <span> tag and removed the Hyperlink class. Neither worked. I can add an <a> tag to an image either in Indesign or by editing the resulting xhtml file that work as expected.

Not sure where to go next. Any help is much appreciated.
