JAWS-test commented 3 years ago

Can confirm the problem. It also occurs on the https://www.w3.org/TR/wai-aria-practices-1.1/examples/radio/radio-1/radio-1.html page. I suspect that the problem is not limited to radio buttons, but affects all elements in quick navigation. Maybe it is also a conscious decision of JAWS to output only limited information in the quick navigation and not grouping elements (the output of which can also become very detailed).
