ChromeVox not announcing misspelled words in Google Docs

Project Member Reported by leberly@chromium.org, Jan 8

Issue description

Google Chrome	72.0.3593.0 (Official Build) dev (64-bit)
Firmware Version Google_Caroline.7820.384.0

Steps to repro:
# Launch ChromeVox with ctrl + alt + z
# Launch a Google Doc
# Start typing any words, make sure some are misspelled 
# Navigate back across those words listening for announcement of misspellings 

Expected: misspelled word announced
Actual: misspellings are not announced 

This does not repro in G Mail and does not repro inside the CRBug new bug interface, mispellings are announced as expected.

@aleventhal, can you help me determine if is this an internal G Suite bug or a ChromeVox bug?

Not a ChromeVox bug...

Firstly, this I assume is with braille mode on. The Docs editors don't expose misspelling annotations in any form for screen readers to consume.
