Activating onclick event via keyboard

As part of an ARIA test (aria-expanded) I'm using onclick to change the display property of a <div> that can receive focus. When NVDA is running, I can activate the widget using the Enter key, but when the screen reader is not running, only a mouse click will work. What gives?
