TalkBack uses the TTS of the original language after it's translated

Project Member Reported by wychen@chromium.org, Oct 18 2017

Issue description

Chrome Version: M64
OS: Android

What steps will reproduce the problem?
(1) Enable TalkBack
(2) Visit any page that would trigger translate infobar
(3) Translate the page

What is the expected result?
TalkBack should announce the content in the correct TTS system (target language).

What happens instead?
TalkBack uses the source language for TTS.

For example, if I visit a Japanese Wikipedia page, and translate that to English, the pronunciation sounds like Katakana. If it is translated to Chinese, it sounds like Kanji, not the correct Chinese pronunciation.

Does this has anything to do with the new neuron on-demand translation system? I'm not sure how this behaves on the old system. Could be a regression.

Another accessibility feature "Select to Speak" works correctly. They might be using their own language detection.

Hi All,

This is not a localization case, it is more on Engineering side. We will forwarding this to Engineering Team for review.

Kind Regards,
Marvin

+dmazzoni@ - this is showing as in UI>Browser> because it's the parent of the translate component, but this seems like an issue interacting with web contents so it seems like it should be on the accessibility team's chase list for GAR compliance. What do yo think?

Removing other components for now, but @anthonyvd, what do you think? Is this something you can fix or should we work on it?

If your team has cycles, Dominic, we'd be grateful if you took this on
