That is the way it works for me on the mac too.  I tried a native
application and it worked the same way.  It only read the window title
at first.  However, as I used the tab key to switch between
components, it began reading them to me.  Your little application did
the same thing.  So I could get it to read the button to me when I
tabbed to it.

It looks like there is a link to some sort of inspector tool at the
bottom of this page:

Good luck.
