Mark,
I am saving your discussion for future reference. I will need it.
Meanwhile, I have been studying a custom player example at the Mozilla Developers Network. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Guide/Audio_and_video_delivery/cross_browser_video_player
The page has an example that uses the figure element as the player container and figcaption to label it. So far, my experiments indicate that JAWS announces the player when I navigate by tab or arrow keys.
Just wondering what you think.
