Steps to reproduce:

  1. open Microsoft Excel and fill it with any data, and fill the first column with the data headers.
  2. For example, I have the following data in the data range A1:B3
    Name Age
    Apple 12
    John 31
  3. Select the whole data range, i.e. from a1 to b3
  4. go to data ribbon and press sort button, i.e. alt+a s s
  5. press tab untill you find the item that says '排序方式 data item row 1 欄 column 1 排序方式 combo box collapsed'
  6. press down arrow to select the column that you want the sort action to be based on, but while you press down arrow, nvda will always say ''list box list xxx' where xxx is the column header
  7. For example I here want to sort data by Age column so I press 2 down arrows and stop at the Age item
  8. then I press tab and want to select the second option, but this time nvda says the following
    '''
    活頁簿1 - Excel unavailable
    排序 dialog
    排序 window
    data grid
    排序欄位 data item 1 of 1
    排序對象 data item row 1 排序對象 column 2
    排序對象 combo box 儲存格值 collapsed
    '''

Most of the above nvda speech quotes are directly copied from the NVDA speech viewer

Actual behavior:

Seems that some of the message spoken by nvda is extra info, e.g. speaking 'list box list' everytime when I press up or down arrow, or the '活頁簿1 - Excel unavailable' after pressing tab.

Expected behavior:

Expect that nvda will not say those extra info
