When moving through the form with either the tab key or the ‘F’ key, if you don’t fill in a required field when focus goes to the next field the alert error message is readout. This is OK, but the label identifying the next field is not readout. For example, if you don’t fill in the ‘Family name” and then go to ‘Twitchname’ the screen reader reports “Alert, please provide your name.” You can get to the form label, but this requires manually switching out of forms mode and then arrowing.

Not sure what I can do here. @russmaxdesign ? All I do is inject a span with role=alert. Why is the label not read out? Perhaps the injected span should not be role=alert?
