Have you tried any other versions of NVDA? If so, please report their behaviors.

If addons are disabled, is your problem still occuring?

I saw this issue in many examples, this happens only when you let NVDA switch automatically to focus mode when the focus changes. If you switch manually to focus mode with nvda+space bar, then NVDA will not switch back to browse mode when you tab into the region at the separator and you will be able to access the list.

@feerrenrut, @jcsteh, This is reproducible in every browser.

Starting at the edit field "address bar input", NVDA is in focus mode. Pressing tab will switch to browse mode on the unlabeled buttons. Pressing tab again will swich to focus mode on the tab area, and pressing tab a last time will switch back to browse mode on the separator region. In that region is a list, but NVDA does not identify it in the virtual buffer, so I guess this is why it does not switch to focus mode when tabbing into it.

I am not sure if this list is exposed correctly by the browser or if NVDA fails here.

@Adriani90 - Can you confirm if this bug is related to NVDA? We have a bug related to this and are looking at NVDA acknowledgement on the same.

@jdrush89, @akshansh04 the minimal test case in the description seems not to work anymore, please provide an updated minimal test case. Do you still have this issue in NVDA 2024.2 Stable or NVDA 2024.3 Beta?
