Describe the bug

Narrator is announcing Tab items present inside the 'Edit your manifest' dialogue as 'Group'. If the proper role as tab will not be announced by the narrator, then the screen reader users will not get the information of the control and they may get confused.

To Reproduce

1. Open the PWA Builder URL- https://www.pwabuilder.com/reportcard?site=https://webboard.app.
2. PWA Builder page will appear.
3. Navigate to the 'Edit your Manifest' button activate it.
4. Turn on the narrator using Ctrl + Win + Enter.
5. Dialogue will appear now navigate to the tab items info, setting, platforms, etc.
6. Observe the narrator's announcement.

Hi team, Any update on this issue?

[claviska]

I'm not currently setup to test in Narrator, but a PR from the community would be very welcome to help out here.

@msftedad Can you confirm the same behavior happens in the docs? https://shoelace.style/components/tab-group

If so, this is a Narrator issue. If not, it could be an implementation issue. I can confirm that VoiceOver is announcing the tabs correctly in your demo.

Hi Team,

Any update on this issue?

@msftedad Cory had pinged me about this last week but I had a number of things to wrap up. I had this as first thing on my list to check out tomorrow. I'll update once I've had a chance to debug what's up

So I can also reliably reproduce this in VoiceOver by maneuvering the Tabs with the <Tab> key. It also happens intermittently when navigating with the arrow keys. Going to do some more investigation to see whats up.
