[Affected versions]:

  • Firefox Beta 135.0b3 - Build ID: 20250110123854
  • Firefox Nightly 136.0a1 - Build ID: 20250113214519

[Affected Platforms]:

  • Windows 10
  • macOS 14
  • Ubuntu 22.04

[Prerequisites]:

  • Have the following prefs set in about:config in a new profile:
    • browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.discoverystream.sections.enabled to true
    • browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.discoverystream.sections.personalization.enabled to true
    • browser.search.region to US
  • Use an en-US Firefox Build

[Steps to reproduce]:

  1. Open the browser using the profile from prerequisites.
  2. Open a New Tab.
  3. Using keyboard navigation reach a section context menu.
  4. Press the context menu and navigate to the "Block" button.
  5. Press the "Block" button.
  6. Continue navigation using the "TAB" key.

[Expected result]:

  • The focus is moved in the modal window and the first element is selected.

[Actual result]:

  • The focus remains in the page and the next card is selected.

[Notes]:

  • Attached a screen recording of the issue.
  • I believe that this is also the reason why a screen reader won't automatically read the dialog box, but it can read it if the focus reaches it.
