Problem/Motivation
After performing bulk actions on the content search page, the result of the action is displayed at the top of the page. In Chrome, if the result is an error the screen reader reads the error message; however, if the result is successful the screen reader does not read the success message. In IE, neither result is read by the screen reader. The expected result is that the screen reader is able to read the message, success or failure, across browsers. The issue appears to be similar to work being done for #2805499: Provide screen reader feedback when Views List is filtered by name or description and #2805197: Provide screen-reader feedback when Views UI filterable options are updated, but I couldn't tell if this work would be covered under those tickets.
Proposed resolution
Remaining tasks
User interface changes
API changes
Data model changes

andrewmacpherson CreditAttribution: andrewmacpherson as a volunteer and at Annertech commented@findleys - welcome, and thanks for filing your first issue! I'm one of the accessibility maintainers for Drupal core.
Can you provide more details about which browser & screen reader combination(s) you have been testing with?
If in doubt, file a separate issue. Don't worry about duplicate issues while you're finding your way around here. The community is quite good at noticing them, and we can close/merge them later.
We have an "accessibility" tag which you can use, which helps to alert other accessibility contributors sooner.
