Besides the WAI-ARIA landmark regions, developers can also create a generic role="region" and then assign it a aria-label. However, VO is not announcing the start of any generic regions. Steps to Reproduce: Go to http://wafflerama.com/a11y/landmarks.html Ensure VoiceOver is running Navigate through the page (right flick) until you reach the 6th line under the Landmarks with Labels heading Expected Results: VoiceOver should announce "test region" then the text inside the region. Actual Results: VoiceOver does not announce the region, but simply reads the text. <rdar://problem/19785537>
