VoiceOver_on_Safari_Not_Announcing_anything_on_reCAPTCHA-v2_Images

On: Macbook Pro
OS: Catalina
Safari: Version 13.0.2 (15608.2.30.1.1)

Our site uses reCAPTCHA v2. Most of it works with VoiceOver; However, we are seeing that tabbing through the reCAPTCHA with voiceOver on doesn't read out anything on the images present for the reCAPTCHA image challenge. Obviously we expect most people who are using screen readers to use the audio reCAPTCHA challenge; however it is a bit odd that nothing is said when tabbing through the reCAPTCHA images.


We're also seeing a noticeable difference between VoiceOver on Safari versus VoiceOver with Chrome when moving over the reCAPTCHA images. Chrome + voiceOver announces "Image challenge, button".

Attached video is what we're seeing on Safari with VoiceOver on the reCAPTCHA v2.
