@rousku can you please post a screenshot of that element in DOM. And can you please show what the content of the attribute "role" is of that element.

you can just copy the jsPath of that element in the DOM. Then go into console of the browsers dev tools. Then past the copied path and add .getAttribute("role") and hit Enter.

It seems that your element has the role checkbox or radio, but it is something different.
