How do I replicate UISegmentedControl's “2 of N” behavior with VoiceOver?

I am writing a custom control which is conceptually similar to UISegmentedControl — it has N elements, which act as buttons, and can be in the selected state — but has different appearance requirements from UISegmentedControl, so I can't use that directly.

I'd like the control to have the same accessibility properties as UISegmentedControl.

When VoiceOver reads out a segment in a UISegmentedControl, it reads:

	Selected, Title, Button, 2 of 3

When VoiceOver reads out a segment in my custom control, it reads:

	Selected, Title

How do I get my custom control to behave like a UISegmentedControl for the purposes of VoiceOver? I could set the accessibilityValue to "2 of 3", but this doesn't appear to be what UISegmentedControl is doing.

—Jim
