Prettier: failed to parse buffer — on mixed HTML/PHP file #331

What is the current/expected behavior?
When working with PHP template files of the Kirby CMS system, vim-prettier is unable to format the files and aborts with a Prettier: failed to parse buffer error. The file extension and loaded filetype is php (file name is default.php) but contains mostly HTML. Excerpt:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="de">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge" />
<meta charset="utf-8" />
<meta name="description" content="something here" />
<meta name="robots" content="index,follow" />
<meta name="revisit-after" content="2 days" />
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1" />
<title><?= $page->title() ?></title>
<?= css(["assets/css/main.min.css", "@auto"]) ?>
</head>
<body>
<header class="section">HEADER</header>
<main class="section">
<div class="columns">
<div class="column">
<article>
[...]If I install @prettier/plugin-php, the error disappears and the PHP part of the file gets formatted. All of the HTML is left untouched though.
Setting ft=html, either directly or via mode line does not change this behavior, only renaming the file to have an .html extension works. This breaks the CMS expectations regarding file naming however, making this untenable.
Is this a bug or expected behavior? If expected, how do I get this setup to work? I'm looking to format the HTML content of the files. Ideally, the PHP plugin would work as well but I don't care too much about that. Alternatively, as I'm using ALE, I'm very much open regarding ideas how to make this work but I should probably ask their community.
