It depends.
If the button is implemnted as an anchor tag it is probably mising the
href attribute (also, fo role="button" and ideally support fr space
bar key in addition to enter, though that is straying into best
practice territory).
.
If it is a span it is probably missing tabindex="0" (plus
role="button" and support or both enter and spacebar key presses or
key codes 13 and 32 respectively).
Not sure if you can do a front end Javascript hack to put these
elements in place.
