I don't think snaps are inaccessible normally, as I have gotten some
working here. I think whoever packaged the Firefox snap just thought it
would be a cute idea to turn off accessibility by default ... I read
this somewhere, so it may or may not be true, but that would indicate
that a bug could possibly be filed against Firefox in the snap store.
For now, the best option is to remove the snap and install the package
from the repository.
sudo snap remove firefox
sudo apt install firefox
should do that nicely. But do file a bug against the snap as well. There
is no good reason to make firefox inaccessible to screen readers by
default, unless snaps just don't work with screen readers, and my
experience seems to be different, at least for gtk applications.
