So I am using facebook live in my browser on firefox and it wants me to select my webcam and input device. but the settings show up in the alert bar and I'm wondering how to interact with this alert bar because it disappears so fast. And I'm using NVDA.

Hi.


I'm not really sure about this as I've not used Facebook live but you should be able to report this as a bug in NVDA.

You can find the report a bug page here.

I'm gone for real :)

I don't think its a problem in NVDA but in firefox ware there isn't a really simple way to get to the alert bar in firefox.

I think you can hit f6 and tab around a bit as well. Sometimes going to the top of the page and hitting shift tab works too.

that method isn't actually completely reliable in the latest versions I've noticed, the way I've been doing it is either listen for the shortcut key NVDA gives me in the actual alert message, most things will have at least one... or like I said above, object nav to the top layer of the firefox window and look for it up there
