Expected Behavior

Hi!
I open this issue to request a revision of the interface in the shortcut key settings part of the OBS, regarding the behavior when used with the screen reader.
It's quite complicated to interact with the screen reader to set hotkeys for available actions like scene change and start/stop recording/streaming.
We managed it somehow with NVDA's object navigation, but it often happens that we accidentally assign a key because we are using screen reader shortcuts, or we accidentally assign shortcuts to a wrong action.
It's really confusing this part for interacting with screen readers.
If you can fix this, I'll be grateful!

This is half bug report, and half feature request, but since it's an accessibility concern, I've added it to our Accessibility Discussion Thread for additional tracking.

We welcome work in this space, as we don't really have anyone on the project well positioned to provide insight on issues like this.
