Lowering the Severity to Sev3 as per discussion with SME " this issue is not for screen reader users but for keyboard users as it is not accessible by keyboard focus"

@v-gitsay since the parent external bug has been moved to Sev 3 and you have also lowered the severity of this bug to Sev3, could you please also remove the accessibility-sla tag? This bug shouldn't show up in my S360 tracking but it is. Thanks.

we have changed the severity of the bug to A11ysev3 it will reflect in S360 in some days
