The live region example you point out has two live regions on by default, one assertive and one polite. The assertive one will interrupt the polite one, and moreover the assertive one is supposed to interrupt VoiceOver

>From the WAI-ARIA spec

"This information has the highest priority and assistive technologies SHOULD notify the user immediately. Because an interruption may disorient users or cause them to not complete their current task, authors SHOULD NOT use the assertive value unless the interruption is imperative."
