NVDA not reading the objects under the mouse cursor when mouse emulator is used. #7480

Description

@danewhk

Some of our clients use emulator freeware such as “JoyToKey” to allow joystick to mimic a mouse, so they can control the mouse cursor with a joystick. It is found that NVDA would not read aloud the object or text under the mouse cursor when such emulator is used to control the mouse cursor. Do you have any suggestion on how we can make NVDA works with these mouse emulators?

Thanks so much!
