This is reproducible in every browser. In general, NvDA seems not to render the number of elements in browse mode at all. in many cases. List items are for example also not counted in browse mode.

If not all elements are in the DOM, you could try using aria setsize atribute to overwrite the item count which is automatically calculated by the browser itself. But in focus mode this codepen seems to work properly, so Aria setsize is not needed in this case because all elements are in the DOM. And even using aria setsize atribute, NVDA will very probably announce the item count only in focus mode, not in browse mode. See this link for more details: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Accessibility/ARIA/Attributes/aria-setsize

@jcsteh just out of curiosity, what was the reason for not considering item position in browse mode when this was implemented?
