when displaying repeated underscores in braille, only one is shown #9526

Description

@mehgcap

NVDA displays only one underscore in braille when it should show multiple ones. I've not found this behavior with other symbols.

Steps to reproduce:

With a display connected (I'm using an Orbit 20), type

__init__()

or anything else where two or more underscores are placed side by side. The app does not seem to matter.

Actual behavior:

Braille shows only one underscore, but speech says the correct number.

Expected behavior:

Braille should show as many underscores as there are, as it does for other symbols.

Other questions
