How to Reproduce

Provide a code sample or link to a webpage that reproduces the issue. Without this, your issue may be closed without investigation.

The best way to reproduce is to go to the shadcn page for their <Select> component and run the axe extension on the page. It will be the last violation under 'Buttons must have discernible text'.

It can also be seen via the shadcn page for their <Checkbox> component as the second violation under 'Buttons must have discernible text'.

Additional context

Any thing else we should know about the issue?

I also see the issue when running the axe Jest extension so I believe this is an issue in core.

Thanks for the issue. I believe this is related to #3696 where button elements using label aren't supported in Dragon Naturally Speaking so we continue to flag them as issues. We've been meaning to add a "not well supported" message but just haven't gotten around to it.
