           Version: Safari 16

                OS: All

If you have multiple labels with the same "for" property, but the first one is hidden, VoiceOver on Mac with Safari does not read the visible label (or any label at all). Chrome with VoiceOver works fine.

The below code will read "edit text, blank" in Safari on Ventura 13.5  instead of "Test Two, edit text" as Chrome does. 

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
  <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8">
  <title>Test</title>
</head>
<body>
    <label style="display:none" for="test1">Test One</label>
    <label for="test1">Test Two</label>
    <input id="test1" name="test1">
</body>
</html>
