Multi Action Button still not always working for screenreader despite being tabbable - serious

[adamfsage]

Description

When I click on dynamic shortcut button in home.ui (eg. Go to Accounting, Go to Payroll...) with a screenreader, it should focus on the options instead of ignoring it and going through the rest of the DOM.

Similar to this issue here, I have tried on updated carbon but this still does not work despite being tabbable

Using VoiceOver in Safari, select multi action button with VO commands (ctrl+option) + Space, expected behaviour would be that button popover opens and focus is taken to the popover. VO+left would then move through the child items within the popover.

Current behaviour is that VO+space opens the popover, but unable to reach child items using VO+left, moves onto next item beyond the popover.

Tested on Carbon V144.4.0 in Safari with VO and in Firefox with NVDA
