Description
Hello,
We are using react-select inside @atlaskit/select and found a bug here.
Steps to reproduce:
- Open the "Multi-select text input" example at https://react-select.com/creatable or https://codesandbox.io/s/wwy9mw?module=/example.tsx
- Turn on the screen reader
- Type any value in the input
- Press the Enter or Tab key button
Actual behavior:
The screen reader does not inform the addition of a new value or provide instructions for moving between values (pressing the left and right arrow keys)
Expected behavior:
The screen reader should inform the addition of a new value and provide instructions for moving between values (pressing the left and right arrow keys)
Behavior should be the same as for the "Creatable Multiselect Example" at https://react-select.com/creatable or https://codesandbox.io/s/p2zrqn?module=/example.tsx
Best regards!

The work is done when adding a value announces the addition and provides instructions for moving between values with the left and right arrow keys.
