JAWS in VPC mode modify the browser event firing

[havvamehfooz]

Summary

The Button gets activated on SPACE key down when JAWS in VPC mode is started

Example:

The issue is reproducible also with native HTML via this sample: https://jsfiddle.net/unazko/0ngyh7fL/3/

Workflow:

When JAWS in VPC is started we would receive the following while holding the SPACE keyboard key:

• Consecutive “click” event is being fired. If we release the SPACE key then one last “click” event is fired When no screen reader is started and we hold down the SPACE keyboard key there is the following result in the console:
• Consecutive “keydown” event is being fired. If we release the SPACE key then a “keyup” followed by a “click” event is fired.

Expected Result: The Button to be activated on SPACE key up.

Conclusions from the testing:

• The “keydown” event is not fired at all when JAWS with VPC is started.
