When you change the selection in a mat-select using the arrow keys (without opening the actual listbox), the value of the selection changes but is not announced to a screen reader user

Demoable on https://material.angular.io/components/select/overview with Chromevox or JAWS

Specifically:

  1. Tab onto a mat-select
  2. Press the down arrow

The selection shown changes, change events fire, but nothing is read aloud by the screen reader.
