Mike and others, I re-ran JAWS 17 and 18 and got different results than I previously did with JAWS. Previously the other day JAWS was not announcing the title field of the alt text when using the up/down arrow keys. I re-tested after seeing your results and now it is announcing both. I do wonder if there is some setting in JAWS or change to shared components in JAWS that may affect what is announced as my results have been inconsistent.

I apologize that I can no longer reproduce the results from the other day.
