Description Duong Nguyen CLA 2008-05-20 18:27:22 EDT 
Run ControlExample, go to Text tab.
Turn on VoiceOver (Command+F5).
Type Tab key to give focus to Text.
Type characters.
VoiceOver should speak the characters, but it isn't.

The problem appears to be fixed for Leopard but not for Tiger.

I believe it is important to investigate this and try to fix it for 3.4, so I'm marking it as RC2.
