Error: What prevents the Layers panel from announcing layer names to macOS VoiceOver?

Goal

Ensure that each layer in the Photoshop Layers panel is announced with its name and visibility state when navigating with macOS VoiceOver using keyboard shortcuts.

Constraints include variability across Photoshop CC 2023 and later versions, dependence on the macOS VoiceOver version, and potential influence of custom workspace layouts that can alter panel accessibility.

Which accessibility API properties (such as Name, Role, or Value) are missing for individual layer items in the Layers panel?

How does unexpected focus order when scrolling through the panel affect the announcement of layer visibility?

Under what conditions—specific workspace configurations, Photoshop version, or assistive technology updates—does the silent navigation issue become most pronounced?
