    Actual Results

    In the more actions menu for the calendar page, when the screen reader tries to navigate with the Up/Down arrow keys they are not able to access the functionality, but the keyboard user is able to use it. 
    This made it difficult for screen reader users to access the functionality associated with it.

    Expected Results

    The screen reader should be able to use the menu options with the Up/Down arrow keys.

    Modify the scripts to ensure that the content is available on focus as well as on hover(. onfocus and onblur) keyboard handlers can be used to ensure that the link is available for the users. 

    Workaround

    Currently, there is no known workaround for this behaviour. A workaround will be added here when available
