NVDA remains silent and doesn't announce the corrected word in MS Word 2016 if AutoCorrect is on

[amirsol81]

Steps to reproduce:

AutoCorrect is On by default in Microsoft Word, but:

1. To make sure if it's On, go to the File tab, choose Options, go to the Proofing Tab, and select the AutoCorrect Options button. Make sure the Replace text as you type check box is checked.
2. Having returned to the main MS Word window, if you type many misspelled words such as "namme" for "name", "noboddy" for "nobody", "resorces" for "resources", etc., followed by Space, MS Word automatically corrects them.

Actual behavior:

NVDA remains strangely silent while these corrections are made.

Expected behavior:

NVDA should alert users that something has been corrected: for example if "namme" with two Ms is corrected it should say: "AutoCorrect: Name, N A M E".
