I can provide the details on Matt's behalf. Sorry for the delay.
Test setup
Win10
Chrome & firefox
NVDA
Chrome and Firefox issues
Both are having similar issues. Though i tend to have more success with firefox.
navigating the multi select control with a keyboard and NVDA is a confusing experience, when revisiting the control and it has at least one item shown (chosen).
I strongly suggest experiencing this for yourself to replicate the frustration.
I suggest tabbing into the control, use keys to read the already chosen items, use keys to filter for next item, and go back and forth between (mouse) clickable things in the control and outside of the control.
Experience (using keyboard + NVDA / using my vision)
i don't know if it is a focus issue, i was confused what had focus at a given time or how to jump between badges/items (items selected from multi-select) and typing to filter for another list of options.
With a lot of prodding i do get positive results, but i have difficulty replicating the success. Prodding w/ keys: tab, left, right, up, down, shift+tab, alt+up, and alt+down.

Hi Matt,
For the described scenario, I would like to ask you for the specific screen reader you use. This will allow me to be on the same page as you and investigate further the case on my machine.
Thank you and I look forward to your reply.
