UI bug

Bug description

8va, 8vb, rit. & pedal marks (there may be others) do not say selected when space or enter is pressed on them in the palette and do not return focus to the score. The screen reader user is likely then to press this multiple times wondering why it isn’t working only to find when returning to the score that multiple entries have been made.
Wondering if this only effects items with a line?

Steps to reproduce
  1. Arrow to a note in the score so it is selected.

  2. Press Tab or Shift + Tab till you hear clef palette.

  3. Arrow down to pitch palette.

  4. Press right arrow then space to open this palette.

  5. Arrow down to 8vb (you will hear 8vb not selected)

  6. Press space or enter. Nothing seems to happen as nothing is spoken.

  7. Press Esc.

  8. Use left/right arrow with Alt to confirm that the 8vb has been added.
