Environment Details:

Application Name: Azure Tools for VS Code Application Version: 1.66.2 (Universal) Mac Version: macOS Monterey 12.3.1 Screen Reader: Voiceover

Repro Steps:

  1. Please do not close this bug. This bug should only be closed by TCS, C+AI Accessibility tester after verification of the fix.
  2. Launch Visual Studio Code.

  5. Tab till 'Functions' button and hit enter.
  6. Tab till 'Create new project' button and hit enter.

  8. Use Voiceover to observe.

Actual:

Same issue can be observed for the following scenario:

  1. Create New Project_Change Template Filter (The control should be announced as button)

Expected:

When the voiceover focus moves to "View sample projects' control inside 'Select a language', the control should be announced as link as it takes the users to web page URL destination.
