1. I can't repro this on Chrome OS (55.0.2878.0), which seems weird
2. Do we even support ChromeVox without ChromeVox Next enabled (for shadow dom support)?
3. Is this a Settings UI bug, a blink bug or a ChromeVox bug?

Comment 5 by dpa...@chromium.org, Oct 20 2016

I was able to easily repro on Linux. I don't know if ChromeVox works on MD Settings, because I don't know how to use it, but as far as the flickering is concerned, I was able to fix it just per https://codereview.chromium.org/2435013004, preventing the scrollbars to appear and disappear.

If ChromeVox is not supposed to work on MD Settings, then I agree that there is no need to land the workaround at all.

only use ChromeVox Next for any page that uses Polymer/Shadow DOM.  older ChromeVox doesn't work well with this stuff.

Per #6, it seems that the action item is to try ChromeVox Next on MD Settings and check whether the same issue occurs. Un-assigning myself so that others can pick this up.
