Select drop-downs in VoiceOver on iPhone

Hi everyone,

I'm wondering if there's a gesture I'm missing or something, as it seems
like select drop-downs don't work in iOS VoiceOver on the iPhone?

I was testing a site, but I created a cut-down page to highlight the issue:
http://alastairc.ac/testing/select-drop-down.html

When selecting the drop-down, the 'wheel' comes up, but swiping around
doesn't get to it. It is fine on the iPad (which uses an inline drop-down),
but not the iPhone.

Has anyone else encountered this?
