Info type error messages cannot be reached and highlighted using keyboard, and read by screen readers.

Project Member Reported by dbbrooks@chromium.org, Jul 31

Issue description

Chrome Version: 70.0.3507.0
OS: OSX 10.13.6, CrOS, Win
MR: 7018.730.0.0

What steps will reproduce the problem?
(1) Enable VoiceOver by pressing ‘command key+FN key+F5’
(2) (Using a Mac) Cast desktop to a device.
(3) Open the Cast dialog.
(4) Press tab key to highlight active desktop casting route.
(5) Press keys (e.g. tab, spacebar, enter, or arrows) to attempt to highlight the info icon.

What is the expected result? Keyboard should be able to highlight info messages, VoiceOver should be able to read them.

What happens instead? Keyboard cannot highlight the info msg for VoiceOver to access it.

Also occurs on CrOS + ChromeVox, and Win + JAWS.

Need to investigate making the icon accessible to keyboard navigation, and also providing the descriptive text w/in the message to the reader.
Status: WontFix (was: Assigned)
Error messages are going to be shown as status text in sink buttons, which will be readable by screen readers by default.
