Description

@Marc2p

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Install and open Visual Studio Code.
  2. Install Thunder Client extension.
  3. Press ctrl+shift+r or open the extension from the Active View Switcher.
  4. Press the new request button.
  5. Go to the request url text field.
  6. In focus mode, read by characters or try to delete typed text. NVDA will not say anything.

Actual behavior:

It is not possible to interact with the content in some editable text fields

Expected behavior:

Normal interaction should be possible (reading by characters, verbalizing written and deleted text, etc.)
