Repeated live region text is not announced

Project Member Reported by aleventhal@chromium.org, Jul 13

Issue description

Steps:
1. Visit https://minorninth.github.io/aria-live-region-tests/live_region_tests.html with screen reader
2. Under the "polite" section click "set textContent" (notice "Live region succeeded" is spoken)
3. Click the same button again

"Live region succeeded" should be spoken a second time.

It currently is not, which is different from Firefox. Example of a bug it causes: In Google Docs arrow between two lines with the same text. It is not spoken, since Docs populates a live region with what ends up being the same text.

Hi Shahriar,

Thanks so much for submitting your very thorough report. I talked with our devs and decided that it needed to be in its own bug. I deleted your comments here and copied them into this new bug: https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=869708

I've set the other bug to be moved through our triage process. Thanks again!
