Hello all,
i am kind of new to MAC and voice over(safari) testing. while performing
accessibility testing, i have got the below query

The options in the type ahead(typeahead is custom list with input
textbox) are not exposed to the voice over users while up and down arrow
keys are used. However, keyboard focus moves from one option to other
option while up and down arrow keys are used. Except voice over on MAC, all
the screen readers are exposing those options during arrow key navigation.
What could be the problem here why voice over on mac is not exposing those
options during arrow key navigation? To see the working example, open the
below Microsoft URL, navigate to the search button, , activate the search
element, type any character, and then use arrow keys

Looking forward for your response.
