This work-around was discussed by David Woodbridge, in one of his recent podcast.
It does work, provided that: 1. after navigating to a dock item using VoiceOver, you route the mouse pointer to the dock item using VO + CMD + F5, or Fn + VO + CMD + NumberRow 5, if using a Mac with TouchBar, before performing the CTRL + 1-finger press on the TrackPad. 2. Once the Shortcut menu is open, do not use VoiceOver navigation in the menu. Just use the up/down arrow key, then when you get to the desired menu item, simply press the Enter key to select the item and execute the action.
