VoiceOver for iOS does not announce the required state for an input element with both aria-required="true" and aria-roledescription.

For a numeric input stepper that can render its value using currency or other Intl.NumberFormat options, we use aria-roledescription to identify the text input as a "Number field". 

With VoiceOver for iOS, the input role is announced using the aria-roledescription value, however the required state gets omitted. 
With VoiceOver for macOS, the input role is announced as "edit text", and the required state is announced, which I suspect may be because aria-roledescription is being ignored entirely.

The expected behavior would be for states like aria-required to be announced for elements using aria-roledescription.

Here is a url to an example comparing the behavior of two inputs, one that has aria-roledescription and a second without: https://codepen.io/majornista/pen/gOLYgZd
