JAWS is not narrating aria-describedby for treeitem

[kolaps33]

Summary

Brief description of the issue. Please list any specific steps.

Example:

1. Go to https://w7bsz.csb.app/
2. Navigate to the tree on the page
3. On the tree item "House Lannister" press enter to expand it
4. Navigate to the "Tywin" treeitem and press enter to expand it
5. Navigate to Jaime or to Cersei or to Tyrion
6. observe JAWS narration

Expected result

level2 Jaime 1 of 3 has context menu

Actual result

level2 Jaime 1 of 3

What actually did happen? In the fact JAWS is not narrating aria-describedby prop which is on the treeitem. Aria-describedby refers to the element, which has the text "has context menu".

What is interesting that in this scenario JAWS narrates aria-describedby, like:

1. Navigate to Jaime
2. Press Shift + TAB
3. Press TAB key navigate back to the treeitem Then JAWS is narrating aria-describedby attribute.

From the given URL (#1 above) and as tested using Chrome 92/NVDA 2021.2, the treeitems with aria-describedby announce as shown below when expanded (space key) and arrow up/down:

level 2 Tywin expanded 1 of 2 level 3 Jaime has context menu 1 of 3 Cersei has context menu 2 of 3 level 3 Tyrion has context menu 3 of 3 level 3

However, using JAWS 2021.2011.16 the following announcements were recorded:

Tywin open level 2 Jaime 1 of 3 Cersei Tyrion

After reviewing code, and consulting here, will file this as a JAWS bug.

Retesting with JAWS 2023.2303.144 and I can still reproduce issue. JAWS doesn't narrate aria-describedby.
