User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:100.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/100.0

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Ensure that reporting of position info is enabled in your screen reader
  2. From the menu bar expand the history submenu and navigate through history items.

Actual results:

Position info is not announced. Note that history menu is just one example - as far as I was able to determine it affects all places where positions used to be reported.

Expected results:

Position info should be announced if enabled in the screen reader preferences as it used to be.
