[Accessibility, MacOS, VoiceOver, TextField, TextArea] Keyboard copy shortcut (CMD-C) not spoken on MacOS with VoiceOver in TextField and TextArea

XMLWordPrintable

      On MacOS when using keyboard shortcut for copy (CMD-C) with text in TextField and TextArea controls, this shortcut is not spoken by VoiceOver.

      Reproducible: always
       
      Steps to reproduce:
      0. Turn on VoiceOver (CMD-F5).
      1. Execute text component demo java -cp Hello.jar (hello.HelloTextArea, hello.HelloTextField)
      2. Enter some text and select some some of it using Arrows and the Shift key.
      3. Type CMD-C to copy the selected text into the paste buffer.

      Expected result (as in native elements like Notes): VoiceOver says "Copy".
      Actual result: VoiceOver doesn't say anything .
