2. Navigate to slider
3. Enter interaction group

Verified that this responds to step size, and seems to treat step="0" as step="1". Actions show up in the a11y inspector actions menu :)

Confirmed that interacting with the slider using an old Nightly (2020-02-27) no audible is heard. Verified that using latest Firefox beta 76.0b4, moving the slider left and right is announced by VoiceOver along with the values of the slider.
