Thanks for filing -- this is because we don't respond to the SCROLLING_START event. Right now, Chrome and Safari have the same behaviour.
I tried adding the event to handleAccessibleEvent in mozAccessible.mm and posting a FocusedUIElementChanged notification on the target when the event is detected, but this doesn't change our behaviour. I also made sure to add the event to our Platform.mm code (ProxyEvent). We get the event, the VO notification fires, but VO focus doesn't change.

This issue has somehow been resolved. Now when using VO return key to activate links in help guide and inside the test, focus moves to header and user does not have to use workaround of navigating by headers.
MacOS 13, 12.0.1, 11.6
Firefox v 102
