Hi,
Does the element with role=dialog also include aria-label or aria-labelledby plus aria-describedby, and is focus moved inside of the dialog container when rendered?
All of these are required to set the Name of the dialog plus the Description, and focusing into the dialog should cause these to be announced.
These attributes are mapped out here for reference:

Subject: [WebAIM] Regarding a dialog box
Hi all,
Greetings from India!
I just encountered a dialog box having 3 buttons along with some information in plain text wherein JAWS says only 'Dialog' as it is launched. For me, this is a bug, as it does not automatically read out the main information in this dialog box; however, I can easily navigate through the same using Arrow keys. But according to my observation, an accessible dialog box is automatically read in full by JAWS. Reading only 'Dialog' does not make any sense. What do you think? Should this be a bug? At least a miner bug?
