can you give me an example that I might be able to relatively easily
reproduce?

This app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=nl.nos.app

Is the best example I can think off.
It presents a front page that has two headline articles, then two unlabeled
buttons, followed by a list of about 30 articles.

If you only have TalkBack enabled, and click one of those articles, and
after reading it you click back, with TalkBack you are back at the point
where you clicked on the article. So swiping right will bring you to the
next article in the list.

When I also enable brltty, after I click back, focus is somewhere else, more
near the top of the screen, which means I have to search for the next
article.

With kind regards,


Henk.
