[Accessibility,macOS,VoiceOver] VoiceOver doesn't announce untick on toggling the checkbox with "space" key on macOS

XMLWordPrintable

        Test Type: Accessibility
        Tested With: SwingSet2.jar
        Products Tested: jdk-8u451 b02, jdk-11.0.27 b01, jdk-17.0.9 b09, jdk-21.0.7 b03, 24.0.1 b02, JDK 25 b07

        Steps to reproduce:
        1. Run SwingSet2.jar
        2. Go to checkbox demo
        3. Turn on VoiceOver.
        4. Navigate the focus on checkbox using tab key.
        5. Press only "space" key: It will also tick or untick the checkbox, but VoiceOver announces the tick only, and it does NOT announce the untick.

        Expectation: VoiceOver should announce both tick and untick.

        Also tested the native macOS checkbox: on toggling the native checkbox using space key it announces both tick and untick, Java checkbox should also announce the same.

        Note: Only with jdk-17.0.9 b09 it announces both tick and untick, for rest all the releases it announces tick only.
