Hello alex, Rich edit areas are notoriously bad with VO. The work-around I have found is to type your text in TextEdit or another word processor and then paste it into the rich text edit area after interacting with the area. If you turn QuickNav off and arrow up and down you can see that your text is there but you are unable to move by word, character, etc.
