Description

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Ensure to use a NVDA alpha (last, previous... I estimate from November at least);
  2. open preferences, Document formatting, and disable landmarks reporting;
  3. go i.e. to issues page;
  4. press 3 to find h3 Footer navigation.

Actual behavior:

NVDA says (voice only, partially translated)
"Footer navigation landmark Footer navigation level 3".

Expected behavior:

The usual, less verbose
"Footer navigation level 3".
