Description

Hello,

It seems that this library is incompatible with Android Talkback. I've tried to use selects in the documentation but it's pretty much unusable.

This workaround helped with Voicover, but it doesn't affect Talkback: https://github.com/JedWatson/react-select/issues/5190#issuecomment-1634111332

Is there intention to fix this?

Thanks

Research direction

Start by reproducing the select examples in the documentation with Android TalkBack, then compare the behavior with the VoiceOver workaround in issue #5190. Done means the documented selects are usable with TalkBack and the relevant behavior is covered by a reproducible check or test.
