Re: Dynamic price change on radio button selection

Just a quick thought without testing anything first, but I rarely use
"assertive". I hardly ever have a case where a message is so important
that it needs to come before everything else. Using aria-live=polite works
great in almost every situation.

Using assertive might be causing your #2 problem.

In general, aria-live works fine with VoiceOver, if implemented correctly.
