As mentioned above, this is a preexistent behavior and it is also cross-browser behavior for fields within date/time/datetime-local inputs, at least on macOS - both Chrome and Safari keep their silence when these spin buttons are focused with VoiceOver.
That would be a nice thing to have though, to have them announced in the future.
