Build ID: 20151102093730

Steps to reproduce:

0. Unlock the device (or do it with the screen reader).
1. Enable screen reader.
2. Tap search button in home screen. The keyboard should pop open.
3. "Explore with touch" until arriving at "shift" (or "alt").
4. Double-tap the screen (because those keys have role="button", see #1212588 )


Actual results:

The keyboard changed to shifted keys (or alternative symbols) and the focus of the screen reader changed to the first key ("Q", or "1" using the English QUERTY keyboard), and the screen reader output it in voice.


Expected results:

The keyboard should have shifted keys (or alternative symbols), but still focus on the recently pressed symbol, so that in case of a mistake, the user can promptly switch back.
If as per bug #1212588 keyboard buttons get labeled as role=key, then the screen reader should not output anything on keyboard change (no keys should be pre-selected).
