STR:

  1. Load the URL
  2. Turn on VoiceOver
  3. Set the slider all the way to 0

Expected:

  1. VoiceOver speaks "0 units"

Actual:

  1. VoiceOver speaks "0", disregarding ariaValueText set.

Note:
Marked as not supported in https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Element/ariaValueText but I couldn't find a bug to adding this feature (please update the "Type" accordingly, thanks.)

This will ship enabled in Firefox 119. In the meantime, you can try it out in Firefox beta or by going to about:config and setting accessibility.ARIAReflection.enabled to true.
