Comment (by ozgursar):

 == Patch Testing Report

 Patch Tested: https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-develop/pull/10832

 === Environment
 - WordPress: 7.0-alpha-61215-src
 - PHP: 8.2.29
 - Server: nginx/1.29.4
 - Database: mysqli (Server: 8.4.7 / Client: mysqlnd 8.2.29)
 - Browser: Chrome 145.0.0.0
 - OS: macOS
 - Theme: Twenty Twenty-Five 1.4
 - MU Plugins: None activated
 - Plugins:
   * Test Reports 1.2.1

 === Software used for Voice Commands
 I've used MacOS `Voice Control` for the following steps

 === Voice commands that worked for me
 Switching between views in Media Library:
 - Click grid view
 - Click list view

 In list view:
 - Click add media file
 - Click select files
 - Select `file_name`
 - Open document
 - Click library (to go back)

 In grid view:
 - Click filter by type
 - Click filter by date
 - Click `file_name` (I can easily see the title after applying the patch
 and click them)

 === Voice commands that did NOT worked for me
 In list view:
 - Click `file_name`

 In grid view:
 - Click Select Files

 ✅ Patch is solving the problem

 === Expected result
 - After applying the patch I can clearly see the image filenames in grid
 view and click them using voice commands. Without patch I have to go back
 to list view to see the image name.

 === Additional Notes
 - To be able to upload images, I always need to go back to list view to be
 able to click `Add media file` button.

 === Screenshots/Screencast with results
 Before:

 After:

 * I didn't remove `needs-testing` because it might be helpful if it's
 tested by multiple testers using different voice command software or
 devices.
