Thanks Kevin.

Just to be clear, you meant "cmd-l" in your repro?

This does not repro for me; please try again or provide more details
surrounding what you're doing.

Thanks.

Sorry, yes, I meant CMD-L. After a page has loaded, omnibar, arrow or option arrow to review word/char, and VoiceOver is silent. Does it work for you?

Yes; this is a standard cocoa control, so there's likely something
else going on here. Are you sure you don't have something like quick
nav enabled? There's also the possibility that this is specific to
10.7 Lion. Did you try using the VoiceOver cursor to move within the
text i.e. VO-shift-left, VO-shift-right, VO-left, VO-right once
interacted with the textbox?

Incidentally, made a change which should fix the second issue you reported.

[Kevin Chao]

I don't have an OS XSnow Leopard machine to test against, but in OS X
Lion 10.7.2:
CMD-L;
Google.com;
LEFT-RIGHT to turn quick nav off;
lEFT/RIGHT or OPTION-LEFT/RIGHT;

Expected: navigate/read by character or word
Actual: sielence

Notes: If I interact iwht omnibox and then use VO-SHIFT-LEFT/RIGHT or
VO-RIGHT/LEFT, Voiceover will navigate/read by character/word.

THanks!!! David. Preferences and Voiceover ot reporting which tab is
selected is fixed with 17.0.930.0 canary.

I cannot update the ticket directly as when I try to sign in or add a
comment, i get:
Aw, Snap! Something went wrong while displaying this webpage. To
continue, reload or go to another page.

Thanks Alex for the confirmation on the "Aw, Snap!" error messages
also occuring for you. I was very confident that it was a Chrome issue
as it was happening on two different computers/OS.

Dominic said he found my crash logs, will investigate, and fix it
soon. Please, Dominic, if you require any additional information, such
as crash logs/ID's, please let us know, and I'll provide them. Look
forward to when Chrome 17 Canary is more stable and will fix more
accessibility bugs.

Hi Kevin, all,

Yes, this started occurring with two days ago builds, also getting
this in XP and two Win7 computers. If logs or crashes are required, I
can give the required files.
Thanks.

Hi guys,

I reverted the problematic change and the next Canary will stop getting those crashes. Sorry about that!

Unfortunately, omnibar bug is still present in 17.0.931.0 canary and
OS X Lion 10.7.2 Voiceover
