(Screen Reader) with the new installer, first installer popup not read out, many more clickable icons makes navigation more difficult

basically title. With the legacy installer the installation process is much easier to navigate in my opinion

The legacy installer does not read the page titles either.

The new installer issue was mentioned at https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-desktop-installer/issues/1572

My mistake, I got confused because on the first slide the screen reader says "Install ubuntu frame", my bad.

I've amended the title and description to reflect what I think the bug, at its core, should be about - the new installer is a lot more difficult to navigate with the screen reader than the legacy one.

Closing for the old installer project which isn't being worked on anymore, let's focus on the new provision component
