though screen reader.
Yes, you're right! If you upload a file directly from the Media Library
instead of navigating to **Add Media File**, VoiceOver doesn’t catch the
error announcement. However, I can see it in the `a11y HTML` markup. This
might be due to the focus shifting to the dismiss button. Introducing a
slight delay in triggering the speak event should resolve the issue.
