Steps to reproduce:
Nvda doesn't see the list of files in mp3tag https://www.mp3tag.de/en/ (choose a file in file explorer with media files, bring up the context menu, choose mp3 tag, and focus will be on the list of files) clipmate http://thornsoft.com (if you have this installed control-alt-c will bring it up focused on the list of clips you have copied from the clipboard showing the problem) and total audio mp3 converter http://www.hootech.com/total-audio-mp3-converter/ (run this program, choose add folder, choose a folder with media files like mp3 files, and once the files have been added the list of files that you can tab to will show the problem) as multi-select. I believe these are subclassed listviews. NVDA is able to read rich information from them as it can read columns with headers like "header 1" "column1" etc. These are just 3 examples, but I have seen several more. I believe fixing one would fix them all.
Actual behavior:
NNVDA doesn't call these lists multi-select when the option to do so is turned on.
Expected behavior:
NVDA should indicate that these are multi-select when the option to do so is turned on.
