NSAccessibilityAttributeValue exception raised when hovering mouse over top menu bar

Hi everyone, I'm experiencing a strange exception that is being thrown when I start the app in the debugger. It loads the symbols fine and even starts the app okay. But when I use the top menu at all (even just hovering the mouse over the menu bar does it) it raises this exception. During a normal run, this isn't affecting the app's noticeably, but it does make it difficult to use the debugger with a breakpoint set on -[NSException raise] since it will break constantly when the mouse moves near the menu. It appears that even command key equivalents do not bypass this. I've just recently noticed this behavior, but I haven't worked on this project in about a month. I believe that the last major change I made was replacing any non- localized user-visible strings with NSLocalizedStrings. I don't remember seeing this after but might this be the culprit?

Also, here is the backtrace:

Thank you all for any suggestions you may have,
