Was this working in 107 on that device? What device, what version of Android?

Comment 2

[Morgan Reschenberg [:morgan]]

Does this issue persist with the accessibility cache off? (accessibility.cache.enabled = False)

Comment 3

[James Teh [:Jamie]]

Can you access content by flicking left and right (instead of explore by touch) or does that fail as well?

Hello,
I was not able to reproduce the issue on the Firefox Beta 109.0b2 or latest Firefox Nightly from 19th of December 2022 (110.0a1). Also tested on the Firefox 108.1.0 and was not able to reproduce the issue.
Talkback works as expected, the webpages' texts are read and the links can be accessed by using TalkBack controls.
Devices used: Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra (Android 13), Google Pixel 6 (Android 13), Samsung Galaxy A32 5G (Android 12).

Thanks!
