      Actual Results

      When screen reader users navigate the modal dialog using 'left and right' arrow keys, the hidden <button> element is read by the screen reader.

      As a result, this will create a poor experience and cause confusion for screen reader users.

      Expected Results

      Ensure that the screen reader does not read hidden content for users.Provide aria-hidden="true" to the mentioned hidden <button> element.
