Problem
The talkback was not actively selecting the snackbar items when list was expanded or collapsed. Focus on the items was not handled at all. The announcement of list expanded/collapsed was also not being done.
Root cause
The implementation for talkback announcement for expansion and collapsing was not implemented. Also, the proper criterion for selection of the item was not implemented.
Fix
We have now implemented the entire flow. Talkback will announce list expanded/collapsed whenever the items are expanded/collapsed. Whenever a new element will be added, the focus would directly go to the added element. On removing elements, the focus will not be removed unless the element that is being removed is in the focus. In this case, we will assign the focus to next element in cyclic order. All the items present in the SnackbarItem (title, action text, trailing icon) will be announced in the talkback when selected.
