Description

https://dev.azure.com/microsoft/OS/_workitems/edit/59219093

Build Details:
OS Version: 24H2
OS Build: 26100.5074
App: React Native Gallery Preview
App version: 1.0.18.0
AT Used: Voice access

Pre-Requisite:
Open settings -> Accessibility -> Voice access.
Repro-Steps:
Launch the React Native Gallery-Preview app.
Navigate to 'Left navigation menu' button and invoke it.
Navigate to 'All samples' list item and invoke it.
Navigate to 'Virtualized list' item and invoke it.
Give 'Voice access wake up/Turn on voice access' command.
Now give 'Show numbers' command and observe the behavior of list items.
Actual Result:
Users are unable to access the list items present under 'A simple virtualized list' heading using Voice access by giving 'Show numbers' command.
i.e., When user gives 'Show numbers' command, no numbers are displayed next to the list items (e.g., "Item 1", "Item 2", etc.).

Expected Results:
When the user says, "Show numbers" command using Voice Access, numbers should appear next to each list item under the "A simple virtualized list" heading (e.g., "Item 1", "Item 2", etc.), allowing the user to select them using voice commands.

User Impact:
Speech input users relying on Voice access are unable to interact with or select individual list items under the "A simple virtualized list" heading., resulting in reduced accessibility and a potentially incomplete understanding of the feature or content.
