Description
The PR fixes the issue where VoiceOver didn't announce the error message when returning focus to the field from another element in Safari. The issue is fixed by removing the
alert
role from the error message element and instead using a separate element witharia-live="assertive"
for the announcement. The assertive mode ensures the error message is correctly announced on value commit with Enter to match the previous behavior.Fixes #8349
