NVDA does not read focused div upon shift+tab

[kaashan]

Hi,

I have a requirement where I need a certain div (containing important information) to be tab navigable (using tab or shift+tab) so that user can read and understand its contents. Thus, a tabindex of "0" is assigned to div. This div also contains some <a> links inside it. It is observed that div contents are read when focus moves on it using tab key. On further tab, the <a> link is read next. This is expected. However, once the link inside the div is focused and we press shift+tab key, the div content are not read out even though it gains focus.

Steps to reproduce:

a. Open https://codepen.io/kaashan/pen/KOmGYe in Chrome/Firefox browser
b. Launch NVDA
c. Click on User Name input text field.
d. Press tab key.
e. NVDA reads focused div contents. This is expected.
f. Press tab key again. <a> link inside div is focued and NVDA reads link content. This is expected as well.
g. Now, press shift+tab key. div content is not read out by NVDA even though it gets focused.

Actual behavior:

NVDA does not read the div contents again when we navigate using shift+tab key

Expected behavior:

NVDA should be able to read the div contents again when we navigate using shift+tab key
