When using the Voice Over screen reader on OSX, there seems to be no obvious way to interact with comboboxes. The combobox element’s text is not read to the user, Voice Over simply states that there is a combobox. When trying to select a different value, VOICE OVER + SPACE does not work to open the selection and in the selection, navigation with VOICE OVER + ARROW keys does not work. Normal arrow key navigation works but does not read the selected element. Finishing the selection with VOICE OVER + SPACE does not work. This can lead to confusion in BVI users and cause them to be unable to select the preferred item in the list.
