accessibility of OBS and voiceover with osx 10.11.3: some issues and feedback

Hello there. I'm visually impaired and use OBS software for streaming to youtube. It works well, however I'm seeing some issues with the screen reader I use. I'm on osx 10.11.3 and use a screen reader called voiceover. Voiceover can be accessed with command plus f5 from anywhere in the os.



Anyway, one of the issues I see is when adding a source. I click the add button and get to the menu, but the menu items don't speak. I have to guess and this makes it a bit more tedious to add only a mic or a mic and camera. There are some other accessibility issues but thought I'd bring the biggest one to your attention first. I really enjoy using the software, and I hope accessibility will be improved.Here is the link to my log file in case you need it.

We have another user that recently started working on some of the accessibility aspects of the program. I don't know how much progress he's made but I'll point him towards your forum thread.
