Description

### Describe the bug

When using the narrator on an app with SettingCards no clickable and with a controls in the content, the narrator behaves differently depending on the control used and if it is inside a Grid or a StackPanel (maybe there are other layouts also, but haven't tested)

Here it is an example of the different behaviors:

```xaml









Option 1
Option 2
Option 3




Option 1
Option 2
Option 3










```

### Steps to reproduce

```text
1. Create a new project and set the above example as the content of the page.
2. Open the narrator and select the controls to see how the narrator behaves with the different controls.
```

### Expected behavior

All the narrator outputs should be equal to the ToggleSwitch/ComoBox SettingsCard narrator output
