Comment (by grahamarmfield):

 Patches 23560.6 and 23560.7 are no longer adding the aria-label="$title"
 and aria-checked="false" attributes into the <li> that contains the media
 file. So although focus is able to rest on the individual items, screen
 readers have nothing to voice.

 In these two patches, the command to add the attribute takes the form
 `this.$el.prop('aria-label'...` whereas in 23560.5 the command is
 `this.$el.attr('aria-label'...` which does add the attributes
 successfully.

 If you can provide a patch that combines the various focus updates in .6
 and .7 along with the attribute setting from .5 then we may have something
 that ticks all the boxes.
