Accessibility: Dialog role does not anounce correctly

Reported by james.sc...@atsid.com, Dec 20 2016

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/52.0.2743.116 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Open up the jqueryUI dialog spec (http://jqueryui.com/dialog/)

What is the expected behavior?
When focus is put into the dialog, the Dialog should be announced with label and description and then the element which has focus should be announced.

What went wrong?
Only the element which has focus is announced; 'close button'.

Did this work before? No 

Chrome version: 52.0.2743.116  Channel: n/a
OS Version: 6.1 (Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 R2)
Flash Version: Shockwave Flash 24.0 r0

Firefox works as expected.  According to the spec, dialogs should have labels and should be announced, but chrome seems to ignore those, only announcing if the dialog itself has focus.  The spec states that a descendant element should get focus though.
 
Seems to work with NVDA, but not JAWS.  Working with Firefox and JAWS.  Not sure what the difference is.  Similar to how https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=671221 works in Chrome/NVDA and Firefox/JAWS but not Chrome/JAWS.
Sounds like this issue is related
