Editable lyric lines not navigatable with screen reader #32514

Issue type

Accessibility issue (e.g. for keyboard-only or screen reader users)

Description with steps to reproduce

In 4.7 info says that lyric lines such as dash and underscore are now able to be selected and editable. However, they do not seem to be able to be navigated to with keyboard. It is possible (especially with varied punctuation reading settings) that if they can be navigated to they would be read out which they currently are not. See #19510. Even if the screen reader reported nothing on that Alt arrow press it would still give the user knowledge that something is there.

STEPS:

  1. Open any score with lyrics that include hyphen and underscore.
  2. Use alt arrow to navigate across these items and notice that the hyphen and dash are skipped by navigation.

Ideally these would navigate to with the next press of Alt right after the syllable lyric they follow.
