[Accessibility] Screen readers cannot read the DropDownButton and SplitButton items

The DropDownButton and SplitButton exhibit the following accessibility issues:

  • The screen reader cannot read the items in the DropDownButton and SplitButton popup.
  • When the DropDownButton is opened with Enter, the user cannot navigate the dropdown items with the arrow keys (tested in NVDA).

Hello everyone,

I’m writing to provide an update on this item. Due to the complexity of the issue and the scope of the required changes, the fix will be postponed to the next release. We want to allocate some more time to the development and testing of the fix.

Thank you for your understanding and patience.

Regards,

Hi Zachry,

I can confirm that this issue will be addressed with this item in both components, so there's no need to create a separate post or ticket.

Do the two problems need to be separated to two different tickets/issues?
