1649711 - Preferences: VoiceOver speaks items in the Preferences category list as dimmed.

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: Disability Access APIs, defect, P1)

Description

[Marco Zehe (:MarcoZ)]

With VoiceOver on:

1. Open about:preferences. Focus lands in the search field.
2. Shift+tab or VO+Left until you reach the category list.
3. If you VO+LeftArrowed, press VO+DownArrow to interact.
4. Read through the list items.

Expected: VoiceOver should just speak them.
Actual: VoiceOver speaks their names, position etc., but also the state "dimmed", as if they were greyed out.

This does not happen on Windows.
