I can produce this using alpha-19538,b21a299b and Chrome. This does not occur with NVDA 2019.2.1.

  1. Select a line of text using shift+end
  2. Press left arrow to move to the previous letter.
    Actual: NVDA announces the letter.
    Expected: NVDA announces text unselected followed by the letter.

The problem occurs in any application where there is browse mode (Firefox, chrome, Thunderbird etc.). In NVDA 2019.2.1 everything works correctly.
