Yes, there are occasionally sites that don't respond to the normal button
click with Jaws. I try the following in kind of this order if I can't
access the button with spacebar:
1. Use forms list insert-f5 and find the button and hit enter.
2. Try to left-click the button using mouse emulation from the Jaws review
screen.
3. Try convenient OCR'ing the page and if you hear the OCR voice read
something that sounds like the button you want, left-click that.
4. Try a different screen-reader i.e. NVDA, Window-eyes demo, System Access
virtual mouse. Sometimes another screen-reader will read a control that
Jaws can't and vice versa.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] has anyone had trouble clicking some buttons and
whatdid you do?
Are there simply some button types that absolutely can't be clicked? Some
sites that require electronic signatures simply won't move my I agree
button; it just sits there no matter what I try to do. I have routed
cursors, tried to hold shift down to get it in a new browser window. If
anyone has any helpful hints will gladly receive.
