Additional Information

Reproduce steps:

1. Download NVDA (https://www.nvaccess.org/download/) and run
2. Make sure the mouse tracking is enabled (by default it was for me), even without running through the setup the software would begin working
3. Move the mouse over the standard Electron app
4. Observe on 30.0.0-beta.8 and later that this doesn't really follow the mouse and just detects the 4 item list group heading
5. In prior versions (30.0.0-beta.7) and earlier this will properly read each text element the mouse moves over

It appears this change #41256 broke the behavior. Looking at the accessibility tree in MSAA (Microsoft Active Accessibility) mode within the Inspect.exe tool (available in the Windows SDK) it looks like the extra pane and sibling are shown from the above change - when I mouse over elements the empty pane is incorrectly discovered, which I suspect is leading to this behavior.

Note: This could be a NVDA bug as well, but reporting here for visibility and in case there's a known fix that could be done.
