Milestone
Environment
VisualStudio.17.Preview/17.11.0-pre.5.0+35118.90
.NET version
8.0
Did this work in a previous version of Visual Studio and/or previous .NET release?
No, never in the out of process designer
Issue description
When the out of process designer has focus and you try to move between the controls on the form screen readers aren't able to detect the focus change and are therefore quiet.
This makes it impossible to work with the designer in a sufficient way.
You can press F4 to focus the property editor and tab to the components combo to select the component you want to work with but that's extremely insufficient.
Steps to reproduce
The screen reader doesn't announce that the button got focused.
