It doesn't announce it in Focus mode for me. If I tab from outside of
the fieldset to that first checkbox, it only announces the legend, and
then the label for the first checkbox .

"Which types of waste do you transport? grouping clickable Waste from
animal carcasses check box not checked "

In Browse mode, once I cross the threshold of the fieldset, it also only
announces the legend.

"grouping heading level 1 Which types of waste do you transport?"
