ARIA live regions not read out by screen readers #33

@64json

Description

@64json

Per https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Accessibility/ARIA/ARIA_Live_Regions,

Dynamically adding an element with an aria-live attribute or specialized role to the document also won't result in any announcement by assistive technologies (as, at that point, the browser/assistive technologies are not aware of the live region yet, so cannot monitor it for changes).

Now that we dynamically load the audification component, screen readers do not read out the live region.

EDIT: it still works fine on VoiceOver + Safari/Chrome. It needs to be tested on other combinations.
