I don't think it's uncommon for a native HTML select to be a required field
in a form, but how do you indicate that an ARIA listbox is required? You
can't apply the aria-required attribute to the button.

If you want to use aria-required you have to go with the "scrollable
listbox implementation:
https://www.w3.org/TR/wai-aria-practices-1.1/examples/listbox/listbox-scrollable.html
(do away with the button as the trigger, aria-required is valid on a
listbox role).
If you have to use a trigger button, there's always the less fancy
backup, visually hidden text/description.
