I'm using JAWS and I've used both the space bar and the enter key.

Define 'work'?
Are you using ARIA?
A normal button?
Does it have the tabindex attribute?
Are you using JAWS and pressing the space bar or are you hitting
enter/return?
Are you using a screen reader at all?

I agree with Tim, give us something to review at and I'll be happy to look
it over.
