VoiceOver focus moves unpredictably in the active window after clicking a link to a webpage

Severity

Description

After clicking a link to a webpage, the link will be activated as expected, however VoiceOver focus will then be moved to a random location in the active window. This is most reliably demonstrated when clicking a URL in Mail, where focus moves to the newly opened webpage as expected, however when returning to Mail, VoiceOver focus will not be on the link you clicked, requiring you to manually locate the link in order to continue reading the message where you left off.
