Steps to reproduce:

  1. visit this URL.
    data:text/html,<button>outter target1</button><nav aria-labelledby="nav-1"><h2 id="nav-1">Test navigation</h2><button>inner target</button></nav>
    
  2. Hit the b key to focus the button in the region. arrowing also works but the button skips the header.
  3. Observe what NVDA syas.
  4. use object navigation to escape the region.

Actual behavior:

Upon entering, nvda does not read the labelledby but it does read the labelledby when I touch the node with object nav.

Expected behavior:

The heading is read
