Today I updated the VScode insiders version and noticed that it is no longer possible to navigate with arrows in the terminal accessibility buffer.

I create a new terminal, type any command, press shift+tab and try to use the arrow keys to read the result of the command. Nothing is read by orca, no matter what keys I use.
I also tested disabling all extensions and the result was the same.
