Hey Boris,

2. observation “1.” does not hold if the view is a NSTextField, no matter if editable, or as a static label, or an NSButton. (I verified “1.” holds when the view is a custom NSView subclass, or when the view is a NSProgressIndicator. Besides these 4 NSView subclasses, I did not try any others)
Have you tried posting the AX notification from the control’s cell? For elements which subclass NSControl (e.g. NSTextField and NSButton), the accessibility is handled on the cell.

I just want the selected table row to be spoken while the user is in the text field navigating the table view results with arrow up/down.
Have you tried comparing your suggestions menu to those found in Finder and Mail search? I notice that those search fields have a child with a role of SGTMenu, which has a single child of AXMenu. Matching the role and hierarchy might get things working.

Keep filing those bugs. Thanks,
Josh
