It's covered in Section 508 (http://www.access-board.gov/sec508/guide/index.htm), not WCAG. WCAG is for web sites/apps only.

Subject: [WebAIM] WCAG 2.0 scoping

Can someone point me to where in WCAG 2.0 definition or application that
products which do not run in or on a browser are covered? I'm not
seeing it. Also, where are success techniques for such things as
including name, role, and state for non-browser-based application
interface elements?

Thanks in advance for enlightening me.
