[Windows Desktop] App does not read textfield characters when moving the cursor with arrow keys with screen reader enabled #95556
Description
Hi,
I'm using TextFormFields on Windows with the NVDA screen reader, and they're not behaving like text fields should.
For example, I get my characters echoed regardless of my character echo setting, and when I navigate through the contents of the text field with the arrow keys, nothing is read. The screen reader doesn't seem to know that character navigation is happening.
