Re: Can't always access the Close option when notifications appear in top right corner on Mac in Sequoya

I thought notifications was VO plus O.

Executing any of these any number of times will not give me the option to close the notification.  I can only do this by using my limited vision and pressing on it, physically, with my trackpad/mouse.   Why am I getting these options instead of the options I want?  Why does this not happen all the time?  What causes it?  How can I respond to it accessibly? I sometimes even get this problem when talking with Apple Accessibility support and having to use vision to activate a screen share, because VO Space won’t behave.
