Description

Environment

Vuetify Version: 3.7.6
Vue Version: 3.5.13
Browsers: Chrome 131.0.0.0
OS: Windows

Steps to reproduce

Environment
Vuetify Version: 3.7.6
Vue Version: 3.5.13
Browser: Chrome 131.0.0.0
OS: Windows 11 Pro
Version: 10.0.26100

Steps to reproduce

  1. Enable NVDA Screen Reader
  2. Focus the menu trigger and press Enter
  3. Press Tab (it will focus the first menu item)
  4. Press Enter (nothing happens, the menu just closes)
  5. Press ArrowDownkey (nothing happens, it looks like focus is moved outside the menu element)
  6. After pressing ArrowDownkey 2 times, and pressing Enter, it will focus the second or the third element after the menu
Expected Behavior

Expect it to work exactly the same as without NVDA

Actual Behavior

Enter, ArrowDown, ArrowUp events not properly working. Focus broken.
Note that it works correctly on MacOS with VoiceOver
