Steps to reproduce:

1. Go to the GMail sign in page
2. Start typing an address you have used before so it offers a drop down list of suggestions
3. down arrow through the suggestions

Actual behavior:

At Step 3 NVDA either reads "blank" or whatever text was typed into the edit field already.

Expected behavior:

It should report the suggestion which currently has focus.

Very odd. using GitHub's sign in page, Microsoft Edge seems to read the Autofill dialog without issue. However with Google Chrome, the choice autopopulates, but if you clear Chrome's fill, I can confirm NVDA also says "blank". Narrator does read Chrome's autofill implementation though with some success.
