When using NVDA to tab (or use the 7-8-9 keys) through an HTML page if I come to an input element of type file everything works fine if I'm moving forward through the document. However, if I'm using shift-tab to move backward, it does not read normally. When the button is highlighted, it just says "Button", The text field part is treated like a regular text field.
I have seen this in IE only, Chrome seems to read just fine. I've also tried giving the element an ARIA-Label. Like everything else it works fine with tab but is not read by shift-tab. The label element associated with this input element is also not read.
Here is the HTML to build the element having the problem.
