Description

The following HTML is not reporting a link-name issue, however NVDA does not announce the `title` attribute and the Chrome accessibility view shows that the content of the anchor overrides the `title`. However, Firefox accessibility view does show the `title` as the link name, so this may just be a Chrome issue.
