8. Observe that NVDA is unnecessarily announcing label name twice throughout the application

Actual:

NVDA announces the label name twice for various controls throughout the application. This behavior is consistent across multiple screens and components, leading to repetitive and potentially confusing output.
Note: Issue is observed in throughout the application

Expected:

Screen readers like NVDA should announce each label once, clearly and concisely, when focus lands on a control. This ensures users receive accurate and non-redundant information.

User Impact:

Screen reader users may experience cognitive overload or confusion due to redundant announcements. This can slow down navigation, reduce efficiency, and impair the overall user experience—especially for users relying on auditory feedback for form completion
