JAWS reads the text inside an alert dialog twice/3 times #756

Open MadalinaStelea opened 9 months ago

MadalinaStelea commented 9 months ago

Summary

JAWS reads the text inside a dialog twice if the role is set to either 'alert' or 'alertdialog'. The issue doesn't happen with other roles, like 'dialog'.

Example:

  1. Open JAWS.
  2. Open either Edge or Chrome and go to https://www.w3.org/WAI/ARIA/apg/patterns/alertdialog/examples/alertdialog/
  3. Click on the "Discard" button in the example.
  4. Notice that JAWS reads the text in the dialog twice.

Expected result

JAWS should only read the content of the dialog once.

Actual result

JAWS reads the content of the dialog twice.

Later Update - This happens in the latest versions of Chrome/Edge as well. I also noticed that this is a sporadic issue. In Chrome I don't get it all the times and in Edge it sometimes happen for the JAWS to read the alert dialog content twice, and sometime it reads it 3 times with the exact same example.
